Just got an initial quote from Toyota for a used engine swap. I need to look for some new rice and beans recipes. Not even a realistic price to post.

And, original toyota build quality, even if you don’t know the historyMuch cheaper to just buy a good used motor vs rebuilding this one....
Thanks. Still searching options.Not sure where your at, maybe you have a line on an engine by now but pulling out all the stops...

Only if the damage is the result of a collision or covered incident. Insurance says I should have answered those extended warranty calls.Have you reached out to insurance? There have been cases where damage like this has been covered.
Probably depends on whether the cylinders look like those in the Camry from the oil change thread or still have great crosshatch like other Toyotas.Your failure is the stuff of my nightmares.
I wouldn't hesitate to replace with a Tundra/Sequoia motor. Hell it wouldn't be cheap but if you can find a high mileage Tundra motor I'd consider rebuilding it before install. The LC motor at least is supposedly designed for 3 rebuilds, with the first one not even expecting to hone the block - I'd assume the Tundra 3UR-FE would be similar.
Yeah.Probably depends on whether the cylinders look like those in the Camry from the oil change thread or still have great crosshatch like other Toyotas.
I also wouldn’t hesitate to run a tundra engine if it were free of varnish or other signs of neglected maintenance.
Been there (kind of). It really, really sucked.Yeah.
In fairness my actual nightmare involves my truck dying like this but on a trail, and also my trailer is parked at a campground 1600 miles from home…
Has anyone actually put a Tundra motor in a Land Cruiser? I'm getting a lot of interference that it won't work. These all seem to be based on reference guides where Tundra/Sequoia are separated from Land Cruiser/LX (one exception I found lists Tundra/Sequoia/LX570 but not LC). Sure, a 3UR-FE should be able to mate into a vehicle designed for a 3UR-FE after swapping over some model specific components, but what is missing here?
