what to do while engine is removed 2015 5.7

 

Why is engine removed? How many miles?
You usually don't want to fix something that's not broken yet.

 

I would suggest a new starter if it comes out with the engine. They are a booger to replace or like $2 and up to get done.

The Alternator as well, not as spendy but not easily replaced.

 

New vacuum hoses and radiator hoses if you can, look under the IM for mouse droppings and blow and clean under there out, and PCV, replace that buffer while you're at it!

 

128000 miles

 

yes, starter and alternator are 2 things that I left off my list, ty

 

Reseal cam towers on both sides and timing chain cover

 

Is this something that comes with a remanufactured engine?

 

No if you have black fipg sealent where the cam towers are then they replaced it if you don’t see black sealent then it hasn’t been touched

 

If you’re doing the starter and alternator only use Toyota parts. You will pay a bit more but they will last unlike the aftermarket.

 

Absolutely, I practice the same with my Hondas.

 

Replace seal on transmission input shaft.

 

Completely clean and degrease the engine bay.

 

Clean, sand, and paint the frame and front suspension.

I'd also replace every hose that I could afford to replace.
