I can't find strut bearing for My Tercel 87. Can I use it from Corola or any other model? I found this on the ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-STRUT- ... ccessories
Is it ok?

Re: Can't find strut bearing
Note that the eBay ad explicitly states "Except Station Wagon..." This is apparently for the Gen 3 sedans.
AutoZone, et al, carry these, although they would have to be ordered. Any "regular" parts store can also order these. They are the same for all wagons and all Gen 2 sedans.
> EDIT <
Whoops - I forgot you are in Serbia.
There are T4WDs in at least France and Germany, so I'd imagine there would be sources there - the French guys HAVE to have a source for shocks/struts/mounts, and I'd imagine a lot cheaper than shipping a couple from the USA to Serbia. Send Tercel Marseille a PM.

Re: Can't find strut bearing
I thought it was built into the upper strut mount, not available separately.

Re: Can't find strut bearing
Yup on keith's comment - I thought you were looking for the whole mount - keith comprehends what is actually written better than I...

Re: Can't find strut bearing
Anybody know if these front strut mounts will fit my '85 T4WD SR5 Wagon? Two for under $60 seems like a pretty good deal.

The eBay listing does specify "Station Wagon," but it doesn't say 4WD...
Or... can anybody recommend another source for these strut mounts? Thanks, in advance.

Re: Can't find strut bearing
That MOOG number, K-9642, is correct - and is a KILLER price - $58 for 2 is much less than most want for 1! And free postage to boot - can't be beat!

Re: Can't find strut bearing
Thanks Tom... I just ordered a pair.
How did you determine that the Moog part # was correct for a T4WD? I spent a while searching online and couldn't find any solid confirmation.

It's also shown in RockAuto's catalog - at $59 for one...
Seems like it was also somewhere in our site - but I did not do an exhaustive search.

Re: Can't find strut bearing
Just a heads-up that you can still purchase a pair of strut mounts for our beloved T4WD's on eBay for about $55 (regular price $64 from the seller), shipping included.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-STRUT- ... 1e58b58a59
This is the lowest price you'll ever see... less than Rock Auto charges for one strut mount.

Re: Can't find strut bearing
Got mine from NAPA after blowing out the mounts in a mudding incident... Hit a rock in 2 feet of mud at 35MPH... Fun driving 20 miles home. A bit harrowing....
