So I started replacing the head gasket just as the pandemic started. As would have it, working from home, taking care of family etc. etc. my LC fell to the bottom of my 'to do' list. Im determined to finish the job in the next couple of months (fingers crossed). At this point the head is off and...
THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! Mark, (SCRATCH OR PAIINT) both flanges where they meet the rear diff and the transfer case. Also mark the front yoke that slips into the driveshaft. If you don't do this and you just put the pieces back together they will be out of balance!!! Super important!!

Eureka! Deathvalleypaul has a head. He asked that I make sure its compatible with my 96 1FZ. Its from a 94. He mentioned there may have been a part number change by Toyota. So Land Cruiser Gurus, will the 94 head work on my 96? Thanks all.
