  1. Thanks Rob. I managed it in the end was a struggle but I got there. I ended up pressing out the hubs which inevitably pulled the bearing apart which I expected would be the case. To remove the race I performed the engineers gastric band by running a beas of weld around the inside face of the race. Once I had done that and they had cooled they popped out with about 2 ton worth of pressure. If any of you lot are on tiktok I document most of my stuff on there. @supra.restore
  2. Sweet. I thought they might be as they share the same part number but I just thought I would check
  3. I am in the process of overhauling the whole underside of the supra including the subframes, suspension, wheel bearings etc... Im looking to replace the front hubs (the 5 bolt flange that the wheel bolts to) the part number states 43502-30140 with 43501c being r/h and 43502c being l/h. is there any differences in the hubs ie an oposite thread for the nut or are they completely the same? thanks Gav
  4. Don't mind me I'm a dumbass. I need the wheel hub puller first. I'm tired
  5. Hey up folks. I'm in the process of giving the supra a major overhaul complete rebuild. I have currently got all the suspension parts stripped down to bare components front and rear subframes are off and away for powdercoat. Whilst doing that I'm replacing the wheel bearings and hubs. Now my question is, does anyone have a picture of how they have mounted the hub in a press to press them out in particular the rears? The only way I seem to be able to mount it is on the inner dustseal (the stronger one that the handbrake components attach to not the flimsy tin one) I'm not too fussed so long as that dust seal is still available as I will no doubt damage it using it to press the hub out.
  6. Imin the middle of restoring my supra so it at the suspension stage at the minute. So im looking for a set of front hubs to get powdercoated and built up with new bearings etc. It's the part circled in red I'm after. L/H and R/H.
  7. Would you consider selling the lower bracket?
  8. Cheers guys. I think I'm just gonna buy a new rail on this occasion.
  9. I'm on the process of digging out parts I purchased years ago so no chance of getting them exchanged. I have opened up my FIC injectors to see what they look like withvthe newly cerakote'd fuelrail and they are different diamaters. Can I just open up the hole diamaters in the fuel rail to accommodate them or is it going to be a case of replacement injectors?
  10. Its the bracket that attaches the damper to the base of where the AC pump is. Picture below borrowed from another post.
  11. Right then folks, it been a long time since i posted any updates and that is mainly because of a House move then a house extension and then covid ant then kids so the supra has been put well and truly on the back burner. This summer I have had some time and a little free cash so i cracked on with getting the engine completed. The hardest part has been finding all the parts that I put away in hiding nearly 10 years ago, but progress is progress.
  12. Loving this. I always wanted to do it with a volvo 240 estate.
  13. What's the point in them requiring the manufacturers address on the plates? It just seems pointless to me.
  14. My Property is already covered by CCTV, but i want lights to come on as an extra deterrent. The trouble with having a PIR motion detection is that the pavement is close to the driveway and will be constantly triggering the light to come on, and will probably end up annoying the neighbours.
