Replacing the heater tees in a 100 Series Land Cruiser is one of the most common maintenance items to start with post-purchase. The brittle plastic is known to wear out and crack- spraying coolant everywhere out on the trail or highway. It's best to replace OEM tees every 2-4 years or 30,000-60,000 miles. You can also upgrade to metal heater tees for added security and reliability.
