2010 Toyota Venza Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to install the Front Cross-Member and associated components on 2010 Toyota Venza?

  A: The installation of the front suspension member starts with fitting the new front suspension member body mounting rear cushion LH in its proper direction while using Special Service Tool: 09830-10010 for attachment then verifying the front suspension member does not overlap the cushion. Do this also for the front suspension member body mounting rear cushion RH. For installing the rear cushion RH of the front suspension member body mounting use the exact tool to follow the same procedure. Put the front suspension member body mounting front cushion into position with appropriate orientation before tightening it using Special Service Tool: 09830-10010 and verifying clearance between the components. First install the two front suspension member body mounting rear stopper and front stopper pieces and then place the front suspension member dynamic damper for 2WD using two bolts with a torque setting of 29 Nm (296 kgf-cm, 21 ft-lbf). For both sides install the front lower suspension arms beginning with the LH then proceeding to the RH while following the exact installation procedure. The front engine mounting insulator assembly together with its components including the 2GR-FE's engine mounting insulators LH and RH and rear engine mounting insulator need to be first torqued temporarily before installing the front frame assembly. The 2GR-FE engine mounting insulators must be fully tightened after performing temporary and full tightening steps for the 1AR-FE and 1AR-FE AWD configurations. To finish engine assembly with transaxle installation for the 2GR-FE and 1AR-FE, you should install steering link assembly, front stabilizer bar with front stabilizer link assembly and front No. 1 stabilizer brackets LH and RH.
