Hi Tim,

Have a read of this thread on the American forum.

The propshaft rubbers are also known as guibos

Looks like we can use Supra one's if we can still get them.

Brilliant thanks, this has been confirmed by several sources, I have a genuine part delivered for £156, just hope my garage can fit it ok!

Thats the part number for the Mk4 Supra coupling. I know some of the specialists have stated theres no bonding, its just bolted as you'd expect.

Some of them have also stated that they've had cracks showing for 50k+ miles and they get no worse, not even when supercharged, i assume there are steel wires or such actually providing the strength internally and everything is coated in rubber, which obviously degrades to some degree over time. 

That's great thanks, I did wonder if there would be more integral strength but not worth the risk! I have the part required delivered for £156. Just hope my garage can sort it! I will post an update in case anyone else has the same issue.

Hi

I have some cracks forming on the rubber coupling that connects the propshaft to the differential on my 2009 ISF, Lexus are saying I need to replace the propshaft!!! Any ideas where I could get a coupling from? Thanks in advance. Tim
