xA70 is 33584-14020,

At about $33 from Toyota prbly just easiest to get from them. I'm not aware of aftermarket ones personally, but ringing a few Gbox rebuilders would be where I'd start if I was going looking...

Or go to your local Auto Parts guy n buy a bloody big sheet of gasket paper $8

Using a sheet of text book paper make a template and transfer that onto the gasket paper !

Buy a set of hole punches from Crazy Clarks / Makro / The warehouse $9.95

Make 30 copies and then sell them

sweet thanks heaps for that i couldnt find it hahaha.

scoobzd- yeah not a bad idea but its not a thin gasget so not sure if it would seal the same???

[Scoobzd]

Gasket sheets can be had from 1mm to 5mm thick - Still easy as !!

no way in hell I'd use gasket sheet instead of the formed rubber gasket toyota makes for the shifter housing with the provisions for the crush tubes etc. It's required to keep the shift lever pivot at the correct height.

yeah i was going to just get the factory one anyway. worst part is i just tryed to pull it out and im going to have to drop the cross member just to get it out lol sounds like my luck.

When I did mine in the old car I was able to replace it by just unbolting the gearbox crossmember, exhaust and cooler pipes. When the trans dropped down I was able to get at all the bolts through the shifter hole with a swivel joint on a 3/8 extension.

[YGO 08]

yeah i didnt really think about it really and started to pull it apart then seen that im going to have to do that so it can be done tomorrow arvo hahaha.

[Scoobzd]

Without sounding like a smart ass (lol) what psi does a gearbox put out ?

1/10th?

The gasket sits there to form a leak proof barrier - Nothing more...

I'd go minimally speaking $8 (no hole punches, use nail scissors) n if it works (it will btw ) woo hoo

If not, track me down n smack the back of my head !

[wilbo666]

Scoobzd, Have you ever seen the arrangement in real life?

As JP mentioned, are you aware if the little "crush tubes" / spacers that sit inside the gasket?

Okies - Crush tubes "crush" to a certain point to STOP the neoprene gasket
from being CRUSHED too far n expanding n leaking...

So what?

Its not an LCA bush or a 5 point rear on a 22.

It's a "gasket" - Again, simple as

And NO, never seen one in real life BUT its still just a gasket

Let the flaming begin !

Try Amayama, its only be a 4-5days once you have paid (oh, and pick up a manual foot rest if you dont already have one - only $15 #58191-22030).
