Nice build, I really regret selling mine but your thread took me back down memory lane.
Here is what I went through on mine:

Kendall Toyota of Bend Oregon is a Magnussen Supercharger dealer and they suggested using a company called Unichip for their inline ecu programming. They have one already pre-programmed for the 200 Supercharged.
Here is a link to their site: 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser 5.7L Supercharged 3UR_FE
Actually it states if fits those vehicles, does not state that they come with those inserts. Inserts are sold by style and length so there are several vehicles that use the same length and style. Give em a try you might be surprised.
case in point here are the Toyota Part numbers listed for...
The Lexus inserts are made from a different material instead of a black rubber they appear to be more of a silicone gray (almost graphite infused look to them) hard to explain but I prefer to run these.
I would not be concerned they all have different selling approaches when it comes to factory maintenance.
Dealer A: could charge you $800 for an all inclusive 30k mile service that adds additional unnecessary work/flushes built into the price

I replaced both my rear door lock actuator motors with these replacements from Amazon.

Tires are definitely much heavier but the load range e tire stabilizes the truck while towing. Taller tires also did not help the gear ratio but it tows the trailer just fine especially when using manual mode on the shifter. I can now camp and wheel on the weekends. I called it a lightweight...

I was worried that the short wheel base of the 200 would cause a squirrely white knuckled ride but I was shockingly impressed in how well it actually tows.
I use the equalizer hitch on the camper and it...
That's what I thought but switching to TRD pads with stock rotors made the brakes more aggressive and it acts responsively. No more one inch of brake pedal travel and then nose dive. They apply evenly now. I did my own brakes and never bled them.
Another vote for the Redarc Tow Pro Elite. Easy install with the Toyota blank adapter.
Super clean install and you don't hit your shins on it every time you get in and out of your seat.
Here are the socket sizes Toyota uses, all in mm of course:
8,10,12,14,17,19,22,24
I forgot to mention a grease gun with moly grease for your UCA ball joint.
I’m excited to see the finished results, good luck on your build.
Good luck on your build. It's always satisfying to be able to work on your own vehicle.
Here are a few more items you may want to consider:
Be sure there is a pole jack or floor jack available to be able to raise the lower control arm back up when bolting the lower control arm.
