It already looks like an offbrand 90s f-150, you put that terminator grille on it and it looks like a f-150 Tijuana special

 

Ouch


Good thing it’s better than an f1shitty

 

Drove the 04 for a bit this evening. Had the transmission drained to take the tcase adapter off so naturally I spent a long time screwing around with the ATF fluid level. Front driveshaft output seal on the tcase has died after my mild rebuild so that will be fun.

Then I bedded in the new rotors/pads and just drove around waiting for things to cool off before coming back into town.

Glad I installed @turbodb Tundra caliper hardline kit because otherwise I wouldn’t have noticed the brass glitter mess in my hub until I went wheeling again.

 

Pulling an all-nighter. Network stuff!

2UZ isn't in the same boat with the rubber section right? Can't seem to remember from when I did the timing belt on my brother's Tundra.

 

2uz has rubber sections. failure is super rare though

 

I think in 4 years when mine is due for a timing belt around 280,000 miles, I'll give it a new damper pulley. It will be 27 years old then. LOL

 

Lol, It does look like a F150

 

Too bad there isn't a Fluidamper available for the 2UZ.

 

Just send it

 

That looks like some cool stuff.

That looks like Lexus wood trim that's molded into the plastic. No removing that.

 

Not a fan of the wood trim.

Just sucks my switches aren't interchangeable, and the trim pieces won't accept the necessary switches.

 

I'm in the same boat. I did switch out the center console part for one with black plastic and knobs instead of LCD displays and plastic wood.

The rest will be with me for a while. I ended up paying around $400 for a used black plastic knob version.

The LX switches are functionally different from the Landcruiser. All switches are automatic where the LC is only the driver's window.

 

That's not bad; wood trim is limited to the shifter plate and steering wheel. That and the center bezel and shift plate aren't connected.

Still looks good
