Confirm your exact engine code and chassis code against your VIN plate or a current Toyota Parts Online lookup before ordering.

Head bolts are not included. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Why buy the head gasket and overhaul kit together instead of separately?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Any time the head comes off a 2L or 2L-T, the gaskets covered by the overhaul kit are already disturbed and should be replaced regardless of why you pulled the head. Buying both together as a set also means you're sourcing from one order rather than chasing two separate listings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does this kit include head bolts or a timing belt?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: No. Head bolts are stretch-type fasteners that should always be replaced with new ones, and the timing belt is a separate wear item.
