Luckily, he had the CV joints replaced. Right along with the head gasket. I decided to give him a call. He promised me that the Land Cruiser has CV joints. He said that the head gasket was done but that there will not be any records of it.

Probably thinking ujoints. Some people don't know the difference

a lot of people not in the "know" call Birfields CV's

That's too bad he doesn't have records for the HG. Clean looking truck. Not sure what's funny about calling the Birfs CVs. From someone that probably doesn't do their own wrenching it seems likely and not technically inaccurate.

Origin of the term "Birfield?"

It does have CV joints. Birfields are a nickname.

At least it's a Land Cruiser.

Someone posted a Land Rover Discovery, listed as a "Toyota Land Cruiser Discovery 2" I even played dumb and emailed him asking if it was a Toyota when it clearly says Land Rover on the front. He doubled down "I know, it's confusing to me too. It is a Toyota Land Cruiser Discovery 2". It was amazing.

This a****** needs to get his nomenclature straight.

Admittedly I lose my s*** when someone says "nice Land ROVER". When I correct them and they ask what the difference is...I say I drove here, I didn't walk.
