Apologies for ressurrecting an old thread, I've finally got round to doing this.
I've got everything I need apart from oil, filter and sump plug washer (90430-12031). I've spoken to oilman and he's supplying me with Silkolene Pro s 5w40 (plus some diff oil). There was some discussion on this thread regarding which oil filter to go for. The standard one is 90915-20004 but should I order a Lexus or Land Cruiser one which will have more filtering capacity?

Just go for the standard one Mat
Toyota thought it was up to the job, why change something that works ? |

I would fit the Lexus Filter, a little larger.

I think on balance I work try to improve on what Toyota decided and I'll go for the standard one.
Do you pre-fill the oil filter with oil before fitting it or is it fitted empty?

Make sure you oil the rubber seal on the new filter if it's not pre-oiled (dip your finger in the bucket of old oil and just wipe some round the rubber seal). It will help it seal and make life a lot easier when you come to removing it next time around.
Some do come pre-oiled.
