Hey everyone,

Just bought a 2001 LX470 (I'll create a separate thread later with more info). I'm making a list of parts to buy for the 90k service and I noticed the bushing circled in yellow are cracked and separated (not my actual vechicle, it's a Google image I found). What is this part called? Not sure if I can just get the bushing or need to buy the whole bracket. Sorry if it's been covered, but I couldn't find it my search.

It is the A/C line. You are most likely going to want that off for your service. I worked around mine the last time, but it was a pain. Not next time (soon). If you are wiling to do a redneck repair, I simply put a small slice of innertube rubber around the line there and zip tied it together. If you want something aesthetically pleasing (and correct) you may want to order the correct part.
 
If you can help it, leave the AC lines on and the radiator in place for your timing belt change. It is entirely possible and roomy enough to do the belt and water pump without removing those elements.
