I hate to admit it, but I am seriously considering these UCA and LCA from Detroit Axle... Current cost is like <$200 for a full set of 4. Comparing to prices found on Toyota parts deal for OEM, the LCA's were $342 each and UCA's $277. Hell, even if you buy the OEM bushings and do the press work...

Has anyone yet done a write up of doing the head gasket replacement job, with pictures and part numbers?
The FSM is always helpful but I've had greater success with some sort of guide with pics that cover things not laid out clearly in the FSM.
I just got done doing this job yesterday. I was replacing springs too but I definitely found it necessary to remove them to be able to get in there.
Pro tip: So I did not have a 17mm gear wrench that is adjustable angle to do the job so I made a creative way that worked very well. I used a 5mm...
