Thank you all for your responses. The tensioner assembly looks pretty good the assembly is not off its axis by much if at all. I figured out I bent the pully while trying to get the bearing out. I also tried the Napa bearing but it was the same effect it wouldn't spin when attached to the...

There wasn’t a spacer that I saw. That’s something I was wondering maybe I dropped a spacer or something but I don’t think so. I guess I need to try a different bearing and if that doesn’t work a new tensioner.

The tensioner was within spec. It was providing the appropriate amount of tension. The pulley just sits too close and rubs on the bracket now. The new bearing supposedly is the same dimensions as the old one but I guess not. I’ll try a different bearing but maybe I just need to get a whole new...

Hello, Everyone I'm hoping the brain trust can help me figure out what's going on. I have an early production 2004 with the 4in pully. I removed the drive belt tensioner pully and pressed in a new bearing. The bearing I pressed out was a NTN Bearing 6203LLH 17x40x12. I replaced it with Nachi...

Okay, thats good to hear. That was the motor replacement correct? You didn't need to replace any capacitors?

After some searching I finely found this thread. My engine temp gage went out for the first time yesterday then came back on later in the day. I didn't know there were "known" issues with the gauge cluster until now. You all seemed to be on the heals of the problem. I'm hoping someone has made...

I got everything cleaned up and put back together. I pre-marked my torque pattern to avoid a mistake. Remember. When checking the fluid level get your vehicle up to temp and open check valve while engine is running. I opened check valve with engine off and i lost a little over a quart. I...

After i sprayed off strainer this is what was in bucket. I used 3 and a half cans of brake clean to get it all cleaned out.

I finished the pan drop and flush on my 2004 lx470. It went well and i learned a few things. I may have misinterpreted the schematic for the direction the transmission fluid flows or its wrong in the diagram. Either way, It worked opposite the way i thought. I learned that the hot transmission...

Yeah, it probably would have been easier. I wanted to send new fluid through as much of the system as possible. There's quite a bit of space once you get the skid plate off. So that's nice.

I couldn't find a definitive torque sequence from Toyota for the pan bolts on A750F transmission. I found the below diagram for a 4 runner with a A340F trans. Would this be okay to follow? is it a totally different sequence? Here is the website i found it on.

In the picture i circled in gold where i plan to detach cooler line. I wanted to double check that im thinking about this correctly. Is this in fact the return line? I will be following a similar procedure as seen in this video. Transmission Fluid Replacement. I believe this will be the most...

Bump

Thanks for the info! I will go through his build threads and try to find it.
