    Not sure where you got the "sub pulley" comment. Landarcht did question if the aisin kit parts are subpar. My understanding from reading on this website is that aisin kit parts are oem quality if sourced from known venders. Some have questioned the contents of less expensive kits from amazon ebay.

    My understanding is that the aisin kit is oem as toyota sources parts that they don't make from other companies like aisin mitsuboshi koyo etc. The aisin tkt-021 is a proven kit that is recommended here by many. I had a failure at 30000 miles but it is unknown what parts were replaced and which...

    Again thanks for your observations. I am glad I had it done. I hope the mechanic did address the oil leak pitting and thread sealer. I did read about those things but didn't want to tell mechanic how to do the job maybe I should have as you can tell I'm not real good at communicating. I...

    I'm glad i had it done not something I would want to worry about camped in a remote canyon where recovery itself would be very expensive.

    Wow, so reading my last two lines again I come off as an ungrateful ass not my intent. What I was trying to convey was how I care more about this vehicle than others in my possession and respect for this website and its members dedication to the unyielding maintenance of a superior 4x4 It was an...

    True they have to come off anyway should be no charge for labor but they may charge more for parts than I could source myself just have to call and ask I suppose Thanks for the advise

    If I was to do this myself I would replace things like radiator hoses drive belt tensioner bearing thermostat but I’m afraid having a shop do that would drive up the bill on parts costs and possibly even labor. So would it be advisable to have shop do aisin kit 021 cam and crank seals and fan...

    I’m curious too but don’t want to do it myself so will ask for parts back. Gonna get a couple quotes I don’t have a regular mechanic as I’ve done the maintenance on all my old clunkers Got a quote from Toyota dealer for $1400 thought that sounds reasonable but they wanted to do a...

    So I started motor with belt on got the rotational whine and used stethoscope on the bearings no chirping but tensioner bearing and alternator sounded gravelly. I pulled the belt and spun the bearings by hand alternator and fan bracket felt good but tensioner and idler probably need replaced...
