Suprash Posted August 30, 2002 Share Posted August 30, 2002 I can tell you lot are all tucked up in bed while Im busy working, well supposedly. Anyway I remember reading somewhere about the squeeky boot rubbers that you can replace by buying a new rubber from Toyota, I remember someone posting the part no's up, but I'll be dammed if I can find it, even the search didn't come up with anything. Does anyone have this part number/cost. Also I need a new engine bay under tray cover, does anyone know where you can get them cheaper as I have been quoted over £200 to buy and fit at a local Toyota dealership.

Justin Posted August 30, 2002 Share Posted August 30, 2002 Toyota found the part numbers for me after I asked them for the rubber stoppers. They have computer diagrams of all the Supra parts. They were about 3 quid for the pair. I still haven't fitted the buggers yet though coz the screws are loctited in and need a blowtorch apparently to get them out.

Matt Harwood Posted August 30, 2002 Share Posted August 30, 2002 A mini blowtorch can make the difference between a 5 minute job and a couple of hours with drilling and cursing:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livvy Posted August 30, 2002 Share Posted August 30, 2002 Part no: T67293-14051. I agree with Matt - get a little blow torch - I got one from Tesco's cookware dept. All you need to do then is cut away the actual rubber bits with a stanley knife (which will leave the screws and metal backing plate) then heat up the head of each screw with the blow-torch to soften the thread-lock gluey stuff. The screws then come out easily. I thought it sensible to put some thread-lock back on the screws before putting the new rubbers back on (got it from halfords).

HTH I just made sure I had a very well fitting screwdriver bit and then used the adaptor to fit it to my small ratchet.. it all came out no problems and all was done in about 5 minutes.. dont see why you would need a blowtorch, though I do remember reading that some guy on a US forum seemed to have a nightmare doing it as the head stripped on the boot rubber thread... perhaps I was lucky.

Wazz72 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 The screws are covered in loctite (a plastic type of glue) so you nead to heat them, or you will tear the heads off, unles your stupid like me and use an impact driver.. That works as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
