looks like the one i bought from parts train. easy to change. just put a board on a jack and put it under the pan to hold the trans up while you remove the cross member and trans mount and put the new one it.

any particular reason you went with an aftermarket chinese made unit when the OEM Lexus one is like $35.

This is what was causing the car not to be smooth at 80mph. I was having a slight movement in the steering and seats, not a shimmy or vibration, but something that should not be there. my other 99 was/is perfectly smooth, now they both are.

PD, this one was only 31.95, not sure what Sewell/ParkPlace would be... I just didnt check.

I actually agree with PD...I would have gone with OEM Lexus...The Chinese are not exactly know for their build quality.
