The Toyota Hiace and Granvia models have been around for 13 years and will continue to arrive
into workshops for many years to come. This bush was previously only available as a complete arm but now this low cost solution is available to the market.
The Toyota Hiace and Granvia models (1995>) are fitted with an independent rear axle. The rear differential housing is supported by a large mounting, that bolts between the differential casing and the chassis. This mounting has a bush at the chassis end, to allow a certain amount of flexing, to cushion the forces applied by the drivetrain.
The bush is a weak point and it’s common for it to wear, resulting in an increasingly noisy ‘clonk’ as you come on and off the throttle. Toyota only sell the bush with the complete mounting, and Blue Print have been selling the same mounting since 2007 – part number ADT38056C.
Blue Print have available a replacement bush, made from a much more durable Polyurethane, which offers similar levels of compliance, with a much longer life expectancy than the original rubber item. It also means you no longer have to change the entire mounting, just the worn part. This high quality bush will last considerably longer than the original bush and is covered by Blue Print's 3 Year Unlimited Mileage Warranty.
