Jay Leno teamed up with his longtime friend and his former Long Time Standing costar Tim Allen for an exciting project.

Nearly three months after injuring himself in a serious fall, the former television host, 74, will be reuniting with Allen, 71, and making an appearance on his show.

Leno will be making a cameo as himself on a forthcoming episode of Allen’s sitcom Shifting Gears. 

In the March 12 episode, Leno will be seen bringing his car into the family’s vehicle restoration shop for a repair. 

This comes shortly after the severe bruising on Leno’s face healed up following his nasty 60-feet fall down a hill late last year.

On Tuesday, ABC shared first-look images from filming the episode with Leno and Allen smiling and posing in front of a vintage vehicle.

‘Look who’s driving into Shifting Gears,’ read the caption alongside the snapsH๏τ. ‘Don’t miss Jay Leno guest star this season.’

According to an official synopsis, the episode will also chronicle Riley, who is portrayed by Kat Dennings, being ‘horrified when she finds weed gummies in Carter’s (Maxwell Simkins) pocket, prompting surprising advice from Matt (Allen). 

‘Meanwhile, Eve inadvertently lands Gabriel (Seann William Scott) and Sтιтch (Daryl Mitchell) in H๏τ water after asking them to donate to a charity auction.’ 

In response to his fans’ alarmed reactions, he explained that he suffered the injuries after he fell down a steep hill. 

At the time, he told Inside Edition that he also broke his wrist, lost the nail off of one of his fingers and bruised the entire left side of his body in addition to his face. 

He also seemingly suffered an injury to one of his eyes as he had to wear an eye patch during his recovery. 

Leno previously starred alongside Allen on another ABC series: Last Man Standing. 

For nine seasons of the series, which ran from 2011 to 2021, Allen portrayed Mike Baxter, a father of three daughters who works at Outdoor Man, a sporting goods emporium.

On the sitcom, Leno played Joe Leonard, a retired auto technician who later works at a repair shop in Outdoor Man.

Allen also previously made an appearance on the comedian’s show Jay Leno’s Garage to talk about their shared pᴀssion for cars and their close bond. 

The pair met many decades earlier in the 1970s, Leno recalled in a 2022 clip of the CNBC show. 

‘We go back to, oh God, to the comedy club in the ’70s,’ Leno recalled on the program. ‘I met him in Detroit. But, yeah, that’s who we first met. I was working. He came in and did a guest set, and we became friends.’ 

Just several months later, Leno suffered ‘serious burns’ in a garage gasoline fire. 

After the traumatic incident, Allen showed his support for his close friend.

He said that Leno was ‘feeling better’ and jokingly added that he ‘took his car magazines’ during a chat with TMZ at the time. 

‘We did some jokes, which is what we do. We commiserated,’ Allen continued. 

When asked about what Leno’s face looked like after the accident, Allen joked that he ‘didn’t look all that good to begin with’ but said that he looks ‘great.’ 

‘He’s going for the George Clooney look. You’re gonna be surprised. He’s handsome and he’s happy and the hospital’s doing a great job taking care of him.’ 

Shifting Gears airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and streams the next day on Hulu.
