    They all went to this setup around 2005. Before that it was just a basic canister.

    Not as easy with this swap as it has a leak detection pump built onto the canister.

    Been slow going, messed up my back and been taking it easy the past few weeks. Another hose from the sequoia worked good, just needed to cut and twist it. Need to order a new water valve before it breaks. Mounted the power steering reservoir. Bought a LC/LX reservoir because the outlets are...

    Builds LX450 "Rex" Build

    It was a whole summer of cleaning every single piece of the interior but Im used to it. Had to deal with mouse problems frequently when I worked at a dealership. I emailed the RMV and said it was originally bought without a title for parts, original registration was destroyed by mice, and...

    Builds LX450 "Rex" Build

    Just came across this build. Found it funny to be a similar situation for my build. Looks like we are both in MA, tore the interior out due to mice, rebuilt HVAC box, similar rusty body spots and V8 swaps, except Im using a Toyota engine.

    Sent the ECU out to disable air injection. Had the coolant hoses from the Sequoia. Cut down one end and was a perfect fit for the RH connection.

    Found a spare sunroof bracket from my 4runner and happened to be just about the right size to block off the throttle cable hole in the firewall. Used some butyl tape between the bracket and firewall to seal it up.

    Early style transfer case shifter bolts up to the A750 transmission and is in the correct location so the floor doesn't have to be modified. Needed to space the steering box out a little for steering shaft clearance at the headers. Delta steering box brace kit welded in. A lot easier to do...

    Found a firewall grommet from an early 90s Camry. Fits the firewall hole and around the harness pretty good. Was a little tight getting all the connectors through it. The brackets from the 1fz ECU bolt on to the 2uz ECU and locate it with just enough clearance to not hit the glove box when...

    It’s built into the silicone coupler at the airbox.

    3FE power steering line mates up to the power steering pump, although it does eliminate the idle up valve. Cut the brackets off the air box lid to fit the intake tube. Removed the ABS pump and hopefully made enough room for the charcoal canister. Started on a transmission mount...
