Rear Subframe needed
Hi all
This is my first post here, so I'm hoping im not repeating a topic.
I have a deteriorated rear subframe on my Rev 1 MR2 mk2, part no: 51206-17010
My garage have had no luck in finding a replacement, but suggested that this club may be the place to ask, as some might have been bought up after they were discontinued.
Does anyone know where I might be able to purchase one?
many thanks
Tim

Re: Rear Subframe needed
If you are near Folkestone, Kent you may come and remove the rev 3+ one from my breaker. Although I do not know about compatibility with a rev 1. Andy

Re: Rear Subframe needed
Rev2+ are longer* which means revised mounting points on the subframe** (part number 51206-17020).

As part of the suspension upgrade package Toyota also fitted a different rate ARB and matching bushes.
See the first link above.

Re: Rear Subframe needed
Yep, you can use a Rev1 ARB on a Rev2+ subframe if needed though.

Re: Rear Subframe needed
thanks for all the replies! And apologies for posting in the wrong place
I did see that £200 one, but luckily there was also one for £40 which I snapped up quickly. Seems like these things are rare as hens teeth since Toyota stopped making them

Re: Rear Subframe needed
