New booster vs. old booster. The electrical connectors don’t match. Move the old connector to the new booster or replace the connector on the harness? I’m doubting moving the old connector across is as simple as putting a socket on it.
Resolved: brake booster connector mismatch

Ok, one more tip: Buy new bleeders and replace them before you take the old booster out of the car. Not only are you already going to be bleeding the brakes once you replace the booster anyway, but that bleeding will go much smoother if you’ve got full flow through your bleeder screws. I used the FSM procedure bleeding the brakes with the ignition on and it really shoots a lot of fluid out quickly due to the stored pressure in the accumulator. No chance air bubbles are going to hide from that.
Good morning, 2000 Land Cruiser and will be doing this job soon, as I have the (-60041) I Will be using the booster (-60042 triangle plug) and new connector. Jut to verify based on the pin out and new connectors this will work and has worked for you with no issues. Thanks for all the input and research. I have searched to no end and the (-60041) booster is no where to be found
One more question. I believe my issue is from leaking grommets where the reservoir attaches to the master cylinder. After thorough cleaning and inspection for newly discovered leak. I found the reservoir is fairly loose with some seepage around the grommet dripping down onto the frame. Has anyone ever replaced just the grommets? New cruiser that’s getting baselined with expectation to replace the booster at some point looks like it might be sooner than expected

Still works great. See pictures above for pinouts.
Awesome. Thank you again.
