My 0.75" tolerance are almost too tight as well. I called Bora and had a email chain going. Long story short they said they don't do custom machining. This was back in 2023. Wonder who did you talk to and what did you tell them for them to correct yours.

Replace your head gaskets, it's not too bad. I paid $7K and I'm living a VHCOL area. Got car back ran better than before with refreshed heads and higher compression.

Followed the instructions @KLF laid out here and I think it looks great. The wrap is not 100% matching color which is noticeable if you know where to look. Thanks @KLF

If it's an LX570 it's a hydraulic shocks--I'd only recommend OEM replacement. I'd also be weary of this claim since they claimed the rack and pinion leaking due to a messy oil change...you're talking about lowering the subframe type of job because of that diagnosis. I have 170mi on my shocks all...

I think you're up to something. Looks like the reduced flow in that area by design, but also let coolant travels much slowly over that area->more chance of attacking the HG material. I was also thinking lining those tiny holes up with some sort of metal sleeves. So it retain some flow but the...

This is a great thread. Thank you for putting this together. I'd ask if you would post the actual table on your first post so everyone can view. Here's the link to my original post Blown Head Gasket? - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/blown-head-gasket.1289422/post-15891972 Type: head gasket...

I sent you a DM the shop name...since I'm not sure if it's okay to share publicly. Anyone else curious DM me. I've put about 5K miles on since the headgasket repair...so far no more coolant smell, level is steady. MPG/power slightly better than before.

Skimmed through the thread but ya made sure to disable AHC and disable AHC parking mode prior to going into alignment?

Count me in this club, 13' LX570 160k miles, owned since 100K. coolant in #7 cylinder, misfire, stumble on restart. Happened out of nowhere, only driven long distance, oil change religiously, coolant replaced at 100K in conjunction with replacing cracked radiator (sounds familiar?). $7K out the...

I think lighter wheels mentioned here (tires and rims combo) are real world limited since for 17" and 18" rims, if you go above 31.8-32" tires you'll 99% have to get LT/E-rated/M/T which are closing the gap with the weight difference compared to OEM setup. COMBINED with nominal inflation...

Hi, curious about your solution to cover up the door moulding holes here. Did you put any backing to holes or just vinyl straight cross. Has it been holding up well to environment etc.

Rear springs are different length. Even if AHC is perfect there will still be a lean. Look into replacing one of the rear springs for the other one (L vs R) and you should get pretty close.

As much as I’d like to recommend the 21 Heritage, save it for the 24’ LC bro…this is coming from an 13’ LX570, love the truck and will probably keep it but it’s slow compared to the newer Toyota turbo-charged engines. Power doesn’t really come on until the engine screams past 2-3k rpm whereas...
