OE 1230354020 — Engine Mount for Toyota

OEM means the part was produced for the vehicle maker's assembly line; aftermarket means it is made independently to the same engineering drawing. For a engine mount the practical gap is usually tooling age and packaging rather than fit, provided the tolerance class matches.

Four variables explain most of the spread: material grade, whether the goods are new production or clearance stock, packing format, and whether the quote is ex-works or landed. Ask for the material certificate alongside the price — that is what makes a comparison like-for-like.

For a short distance at reduced load, usually yes — but the risk compounds. A degraded engine mount transfers stress to neighbouring components, so a small repair can grow into a full suspension, steering & brake rebuild. Book the replacement once the symptom is repeatable.

Position depends on the platform. On most Toyota applications the engine mount sits on the suspension, steering & brake assembly and can be reached from the engine bay or the underbody without removing the dashboard. Torque figures and disassembly order are given in the workshop manual for each model.

Aftermarket engine mount comes from tooling houses that hold the original drawings or licensed equivalents. KingMay sources from vetted factories and inspects each batch; the manufacturer name is available on request where your market requires origin documentation.

Report it with the order number and packing-list line plus photographs. Because every carton is photographed before loading, we can trace the batch immediately and settle the claim against the inspection record instead of arguing from memory.
