Polyurethane Radiator Support Mounts (Cab Also)

Thanks, I understood

 

I think I may have missed it, but what is the torque specs for the radiator and cab mounts? I just hit the cab mounts with the impact, and radiator supports I tightened til I felt good about it.

That's good enough. I used my Makita 18V cordless impact to tighten them, and that thing has a torque rating of 118 ft. lbs. Just to give you an idea on a full battery.

Guttentight as I previously stated on some other pages.

 

4th visit to toyota for this sound, and now theyre claiming its purely the front bump stops making contact..

To me doesn't sound like rubber on metal contact. Ordered the wheelers bump stop kit.. might do 5100's as well.

Thanks again

 

If you had a GoPro or similar.....

 

The rubber bump stops are stupid hard. Are you bottoming out often on something?

 

Daily leaving my driveway and other similar scenarios. Does it make a difference if my wheel is 90% or more to the left or right when it happens?

 

Are your camber bolts seized or semi-seized?

 

I would guess it's the alignment cams, as Torspd suggests.

Read the whole thing. I blindly ordered off of Large's first part # post and still need to order the parts off of the amended list.

 

I don't think so, as it only has 12k and the sound was basically from new.

I'll have a good read though. Thanks.

 

First they said cab mount. So they replaced it. Now it's bump stop.

Hard to imagine maxing my suspension just leaving home.

 

Just noticed it's a '15. Get under there and put some anti seize on those things. Mine were seized when I did my lift at 45k miles

 

If they your cam bolts and you do that at home. Fo it one bolt at a time or else you'll shift the crap outta your control arms then need an alignment.

 

You probably tried this, but alignment bolts were known to be under torqued and make sounds when they move.

 

I agree. I forgot all about the bolts. Get under there with a nice sized 1/2 breaker bar with a 19mm socket and crank them down nice and tight. You will know if they are loose.

 

I did remove one of the old bushings and compared to the new bushings.

The old bushing installed did not have a washer on top.

You can see how much bigger the new bushing is in comparison.

My install is without the top washer on the larger bushing.

 

Cheers

 

Love the pictures! Thank you. If I recall correctly, the older bushing (I assume you mean the factory top one), had an integrated washer that was built into (fused) into the bushing.

My ES bushings are installed the same way and I love what they have done for the truck.

 

This. Install the washers up top @fla_sun the aftermarket bushings do not have fused washers integrated into the assembly like stock does.
