Prices quotes from Amayama

• 48609-17030 – Front early $100.
• 48750-17020 - Rear early $142
• 48609-17040 – Front late $114.
• 48750-17040  – Rear late $96 

Cheaper to go Front early and late rear hehe
 

4860917030 was that including postage?
I got quoted 68 bucks, each...excluding post

For early models Lithia quote $89 USD +ship.
I have wondered if the old bearing could be pressed out and a new one fitted.
Could be cheaper.
BTW, I found early and late rear top mounts are interchangeable.
The difference is in the mounting stud length.
 

BTW Tree, I have just reversed my '90 model front top mounts by turning them 180 degrees,(Scallop to the front) and found no need to even remove the wheels to do it.
 
Doing this did not appear to change the camber or toe, and seems to add about one degree because I now have over 5 degrees caster with the caster rods maxed out.
 

My quotes don't include postage sorry :/
Nice one Red I'm gonna do the same to mine once I get zem in :)
Do you feel any changes on handling?

Tree - my quote was from Amayama also so it's strange that we've got different prices??
$100 each sounds too much...
still waiting to hear back from them with the final price.

Not much difference really, maybe just a bit more self centering.
But it's only one degree more than I had before.

oh dude I forgot to mention my prices are in pairs so half it. I mean front pair, rear pair. Also my quotes are stock from UAE (Middle East I think) takes longer (30 days) than Japan but it's usually cheaper if ur not in a hurry.
So if $89 is for a pair from Lithia that's pretty good
One degree extra might count when driving to the limit esp with our temperamental cars ;)

Tree - Oh I see. When I contacted them about UAE stock before they said it's just better to choose Japan because they can't guarantee availability (ie. could take much longer). Also I'm not really prepared to wait weeks or months lol.
 
Just checked Lithia and it looks like it's just for one so x2 + Shipping. :)
 
Got a total price back from Amayama for $176 for the pair incl shipping ($40) from Japan. Don't think I'll find better than that? 

Other 2 vendors you could try I guess is Road and Track or Mr Gates since he works for the company hehe
