Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Lift Bolts

is there a sertin time to change the lift bolts to keep lift strong?

wen you feel lift is weak, or you just dont feel it kick in, most likey every oil change just to keep it good and nice

I believe that it's around every 30k miles, but I would make it 15k just to be sure.

I had one sear off on me so Im changing them every 15k now. Dont ever want to deal with that shit again

where can i get the lift bolt besides the toyota dealership or is that the only place

and where on here has the instruction that i can go by to change these things

You guys must really beat on your cars, almost at 20K and mine are still fine.

I would say change them every 30K for a daily driver. If your car is at track day a couple times a month, or if you hit lift a lot, change them every 15K.

Think of it like oil changes, the more you push the limits of the car, the more often you change the oil... same thing.

You can buy these at the parts counter, or off the internet from one of the many vendors that sell toyota parts. You can try a conventional auto-parts store (like Car Quest, or one of the places that the shops get their parts from) but they may not have it in stock. Autozone and crap boys won't have it, so don't even try them.

You want rocker shaft set bolts (if you ask for "lift bolts", they will look at you funny and not know what you're talking about)

I have posted the TSB at my webserver... download it soon, because I will be relocating it to a new server in about a month or so.

You can find it at the following link:

if you have the '03 (and up) bolts in your car you really will never need to change them again. the bolts are redesigned to handle the stress.

its the '00-'02 bolts that need changing and you should do them as soon as possible.

but anyway, if you run your car hard or race often it would be a good idea to change them every 30k miles or so i guess..but as i already said, they're redesigned so that you really won't have to change them again.

damn thats great thanks for the info guys

holy shit are you serious. thats a lot of work to do every 3 thousand miles.

^^^what he mean is to check them, not change them every 3k miles bro...just check them every other oil change..and take it easy on ur car and u'll be fine..
