Work has been progressing slowly. But the pace will be picking up. I've been disassembling, inspecting, cleaning and recondition parts. I've had a steady stream of parts rolling in over the past few weeks started with a Lexus 06 GX470 w/98K engine.
I held-out as long as I could looking everyday locally for the replacement engine. But ultimately found a fresh engine out in WI, with as good a maintenance history from Lexus as one could hope for. The GX470 had timing belt, water pump, coolant and LOF done Dec 2017 ~600 miles before a fairly minor rear side impact totaled it. Strangely they didn't replace T-belt pulleys or tensioner. Interest only T-belt idler pulley was replace in the 07LC engine with Timing belt & water pump. For some reason these dealer on the Eastern half of the country don't feel they need replacing. I called both and they said these pulley's and the tensioner last forever.
So I've order new Tensioner and pulleys for Timing belt, as I'm not comfortable with old. I'm also replacing fan bracket and fan fluid clutch. Along with various gaskets and seals. In addition I'm having
Fuel Injector Specialists - Home - Wheat Ridge, CO Clean, rebuild and test the fuel injectors and replace Fuel Pressure regulator as and extra.
Being a GX470 engine, I've had to swap out or replace many parts from the 07 LC engine or buy new OEM. Here a partial list:
Various wire housings.
Oil pick up tube (pan to pump).
Oil pan #1
Oil baffle
Oil pan #2
Oil dipstick.
Oil filter bracket
Oil cooler.
Hose from block to oil cooler.
Oil cooler front pipe and various hoses.
Motor mounts.
Main battery/starter wire harness.
Exhaust manifold
Main engine wire harness.
Fuel line (filter to fuel rail/damper device)
I've spent a great deal of time tearing down, inspecting, deciding what part I'll need, acquiring/order parts, parts and machine shop runs and checking/inspecting new parts.
Here's a parts plus stuff of about 250 items, which I'll come in at ~$6K before done. It will likely grow to around 300 items before done, and does included the swapped parts.

I've pulled more parts from the Unicorn than I ever have from any rig, much-less all at once. I got stuff stuck in every nook and cranny.
