just check ebay for the parts list and go through a site vendor for the discounted toyota parts.

i'd start with:
http://www.l-tunedparts.com/index.php
http://www.lexus-parts.com/

a phone call may be necessary.

I have to agree, pricing will be reasonable and the work will be done right without getting raped for parts upcharge. Son and Joel are honest, reliable guys.

Its a pretty heavy job.. I just had my 97 ES done and the O-rings were shot at 85k.. I think its more involved than we think.. For big jobs like this leave to the professionals.. GL and keep us updated.. i have a 400 also so i'm curious on the prices..

Thanks

I wanna know how much bottom line for parts etc..

the rest i have no clue

when doing the W-pump & T-belt, the only other parts that should get replace are the ones that need to be replaced. not all these parts go bad at 90K some before, but many never.

if your window on the drivers side door had a crack. would you replace the glass, window rails, motor, switch, wire harness ect...

Just ordered all the parts needed for the 90k service from Steve at Carson Toyota. He gave me a great price on all the items
