1.4.x
I've looked into sourcing a few cases of 2.0.4 cables, but they are much more expensive. I could get some if there's interest, but the price would be closer to $89.
I purchased this crank pulley holder, and it worked well.
Not sure where I got $20 from, probably looked at the price of cam pulley holders by accident. The one linked above was $60 when I ordered it in 2019.
Fwiw, the steering in my 02 LX470 is much heavier than my wife’s ‘18 Explorer or any F150 I’ve ever driven.
At one time I was concerned, but the steering was just as heavy as a comparable year GX I test drove.

Check the cam sensor wire and make sure it’s not rubbing on the belt. Since you said it happens when the car is not moving it doesn’t really make sense as the source of the issue, but I would try and...

I posed the parts I used here: Completed My First Timing Belt Job
Parts + Shipping were ~$550 from McGeorge Toyota (Link to parts store). I bought Aisin fan clutch / fan bracket on Amazon, and they are not included in the total.
Correct, I did the timing belt with the wheels on. For a/c compressor, top bolt was easy with a short socket, and I got the side bolt loose enough to move the compressor a bit (But did not remove) with a flex head ratchet and a deep socket. I watched the OTRAMM video with the engine on a stand...
I finished my first timing belt job last weekend and wanted to write up a few things while they were on my mind. My LX470 has 195k miles, PO did a (what looked to be belt-only) timing belt job at ~100k.
I followed along with OTRAMM's excellent videos: 4.7L Toyota Timing Belt Disassembly and...
I wanted to post in case anyone else runs into the same issue.
I did a timing belt + water pump on my 2002 LX470 at 193k. I followed along with OTRAMM's videos (Disassembly (Original), Disassembly (Updated)), and there weren't any surprises other than heater tees absolutely disintegrating while...
I don't want to go out on a limb here, but if you purchased _any_ Mini VCI cable, it should work. The windows xp / 7 / 8 / 10 / etc designations are for the software that comes with the cable, which you _aren't_ using if you run the VirtualBox image provided in the first post -- Which will run...
I'm going to release a v3 that should remedy this. I think it's because there are multiple drivers installed and the correct one may not be selected by default.
I think this is resolved by changing your location by going to 'Setup > TechStream Config' and selecting a location other than 'North...
VirtualBox is technology that essentially allows you to have a running computer *inside* your computer, no matter if it's mac or windows (or linux).
Combine VirtualBox, the technology, with the Software in Step 4, and you do get 'TechStream + Cable Driver'.
