wow, have you guys ever had to get another one of these? almost every where i look theyre almost $300. heres a pic of what it looks like

 

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

 

negative, its a water pump bracket, try looking it up on All DATA or in a parts catalog

avalon42 FTW!!!! Part Number matches up as the ebay bid

 

yeah, it took some searching to find one new that was that cheap but i bought it last night i was just astounded how much that lil fella costs

 

what avalon is trying to say is that its a fan bracket not water pump bracket.

 

sure, whatever.... anyways i got it in today and i should have everything done by monday

 

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.

 

^^^ good thing i paid less than half then

 

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.
