From memory the jzx90 mounts will work fine and the sump is perfect because its a front sump. I'm fairly sure that the jzx81 and jzx90 is extremely similar

[slide86]

you need jzx81 engine mounts and crossmember......or jzx81 engine mounts and series 2 mx83 crossmember......only way to make it spot on.....factory fit

[chrisjjanfd3s]

Jzx90 is the same as jzx81 except there reversed i.e inlet is on the exhaust side and vice versa

[dr1ft-pig]

yeah^^ this is correct... s2 x member, switch engine mounts

[ae71]

Jzx90 is the same as jzx81 except there reversed i.e inlet is on the exhaust side and vice versa

they 'work' but are not the same.

Jzx81 make the motor sit PERFECT.

jzx81 and jzx90 are a a lot different ouside of the motor, box and diff (centre). Chassis/suspension is completely different.

And if you couldnt find any info on toymods then you fail at internet

jzx81 engine mounts can still be bought new from toyota(cheap too) if you ask the right people, FYI.

toymods kept giving me wiring info.....

I'm doing it now/done it.

Jzx90 mounts will work.
Flip them around.
K frame. Use a mx83 series 2. Same as jzx81.
gearbox. Flip the x member around.

Anything else?

[Anticeptik]

Also 100% the mounts arnt the same.

Jzx81 mounts is the only way to get it to suit perfectly

[FLT LNR]

thx Anticeptik

will get the 81's mounts then....
anyone know where to get the solid urethane mounts.

[Anticeptik]

I think serial 9 Do them.
