That's a huge range. Just saw the write up, says it's a banana 1 job. Just don't want to screw up. There used to be a guy on the Nextdoor app who's a Toyota service tech and working on side gigs for a good price on Sundays using dealership equipments but he said the dealership no longer allows that.
You won't. The worst part is lying on the engine to do it. Buy the Ts and hoses and you can pre-assemble them. Spring clamp pliers make it much easier.That's a huge range. Just saw the write up, says it's a banana 1 job. Just don't want to screw up.
Creeper is awesome no doubt but take a look on p38 of this thread - I used an Old scrap insulting board - worked wellI'd like to have one of those topside creepers for this. Unfortunately Harbor Freight don't do those. Last time I laid on the engine was like 10 years ago and I didn't enjoy it then to do the starter. Things in my life haven't gotten easier in the last 10 years for some reason. I looked on Craigslist for one but no joy there. Guess people who know what they are keep them.

I have seen those used before and they seems to work. Please post your findings.Ordered some 16 12 16 brass tees off scamazon (https://a.co/d/iF52lJh). Gonna see if they fit smoothly. I think oem is only 15mm on the bigger sides but 1mm isn't that much of a difference.
Several tablespoons? Maybe as much as 4-6oz.?How much fluid do you lose when swapping these out?
I ordered the metal T's and was gonna put them in today but realized I didn't have any coolant here so I held off.
I bought these off ebay. Worked well.Has anyone used these stainless steel T's?

How are the omegas holding up? Any leaks?One year update: The Four Seasons 84543 tees recently started seeping. I was not super impressed with the undersized diameter that required compressing the hoses beyond typical. This time I replaced them the upsized diameters of Omega 35-H1953 B07CZSQZ56. It's a bit tighter fit, so I lubed them with silicone grease and they popped right on. The Omega tees are a superior fit, definitely going to be zero leaks with these. If anyone is thinking about replacing their tees with metal, 100% go with the Omega.
While in there I also swapped plugs to Denso 4702 (getting ~2 mpg higher now), cleaned the throttle body, and re-torqued the valve cover gaskets which I could start to smell under full load, the bolts were basically only finger tight.
It is a pleasant surprise how easy it is to work on these Land Cruisers.
