R100 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 If its a 1UZ mount it will most likely be a pre 1996 Crown - UZS131 engine as the SC400 Soarers and LS400 Celsiors run round type mounts. I fitted a early crown engine to my MX5 that had mounts that looked similar. Crown (pre-96) - Traditional steel mounts with a rubber isolating block with 4 fasteners. Crown (post-96) - cast Alloy "ears" that stick straight out with a rubber isolator with one stud each end. SC400 - cast Alloy "ears" that stick straight out with a rubber isolator with one stud each end. Same as Crown (post-96) LS400 - cast alloy "ears" that sweep forward and out with a rubber isolator with one stud each end. Celsior – as per LS400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 was thinking it was crown, but yeah will have to get some sort of comparison other side has the shock on it Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eke_zetec_RWD Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 im 99% sure its factory 1uz of some sort. of the bwt 10 1uzs iv done iv only seen 1 with mounts like this. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R100 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Im pretty confident is an early crown mount. The shock slightly more confirms my thoughts. If you have no luck in finding a mount you can get them rebuilt with nolethane at a place called shock absorber services. They re-made a mount for me once that was hard to find. Im sure other places could rebuild it also. Or jump on tardme and search this guy > swampy9 They have a pair of mounts in stock at the moment to suit an early crown. I was quoted $130 couriered to Auckland from Rangiora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidTheCreator Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 if you go to your local toyota they can print you off a pic of the mounts for a earlier crown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nvmyvl Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 basically need something to hold the 2 plates together in the position thats right. then a piece of steel bent into the outside shape of the piece thats to be re urethaned. just need a decient size hole in it so i can pour the polyurethane into it.
