I've heard they are silly money from Toyota, £50 a side or something.

Dave @ TM Developments sells the pair for £54, happy days. :)

Droplinks Info

The Low Down

There are two versions of droplink setup on the turbo models.

Between Dec 1989 and Dec 1991 (Phase 1 EP82) the turbos shared the same setup as the non turbo models. It consisted of a straight bar with four rubber bushes on each side held in place by two washers on each side.

In 1992 the turbo model got it's own L-shaped antiroll bar links (and it's own antiroll bar to suit). The design eliminated two of the rubber bushes on each side replacing them instead with a newly added joint on the drop link.

This offered improved handling and the setup remained right up until the EP's demise in 1999.

Parts required for full replacement (both sides):

Link rod X 2 = Part number 48820-10010 (approx £20.40 each plus VAT)
Rubber bush X 4 = Part number 48817-10020 (approx £4.76 each plus VAT

Bolt X 2 = Part number 90179-10054 (approx 71p each plus VAT)

Prices based on 2005 retail figures. They may have decreased/increased since then but any Toyota dealer can quote you on those part numbers.

Cheers,

Sounds about right Jay, I replaced both of mine last year as I bent one on a kerb or something, I also upgraded the link bushes with TRD ones.

I thought the prices were not too bad. I can always just about guess how much parts are going to be from Toyota. Try buying parts for a land rover, they are crazy.

Aftermarket ARBs do not come with the drop links, they are seperate.

Just for reference.

Also Jay that's an awesome info as usual, Johnny I think the NA ones are like the Early GT's. Whiteline drop link kit is only £35 from Dave, I might get some.
