    @JKO1998

    If you're not in absolute desperation to replace just yet, I can send you an OEM thermostat.

    I had one in storage and it kind of got lost. Zane was kind enough to send me one so I replaced mine in the 4Runner.

    Only to recently find said thermostat again.

    If you need it, it's yours.

    The guy who had my truck before me completely rounded off the bottom nut on the housing. I had to take off the alternator belt and lower radiator hose and spend probably 3 hours with vice grips and spiral sockets to finally break it free. F819D34E-9027-49D8-B42E-21F42050C85A.jpg

    Yep!

    Specifically need those sockets that grip the walls and not the corners of said bolts. That and if the socket is shallow enough, both those factors will easily round them off.

    Yeah it sucked ass. The stud came out with it so I tightened it by hand and needle nose as much as possible before twisting the new nut on.

    So the motor mounts on my Camry are already destroyed

    Is there any diy motormounts that y'all know of that have a decent amount of rubber/polyurethane? So my car doesn't shake itself appart

    I used some 4.2 jeep Grand wagoneer motor mounts on my 97 but one of them broke in half
