That is not a water pump bracket. This is the fan bracket, do a search, use asterics when searchig for three or less letter words, like this - *fan* bracket

I have posted the part # , replacement cost, actual Lexus/Toyota verbage for this piece & all other pertinent info here so many times that you deserve to pay $300.00 for a new one.

Good god @ one point I even had a picture here of the bearing (hydraulically pressed out of the bracket) that fails when this part needs to be replaced.

Damon,

Were you able to find a replacement fan bracket bearing cause I failed miserably at my last attempt?

I abandoned the search when I broke the assembly pressing the bearing out.

Glad that the part was found at a good price.
