Do you mind on elaborating on rebuilding your distributor? Mine has been throwing a code 12 and makes a strange noise on occasion at start up. Thanks
I rebuilt my distributor - included my info starting on post #13 in this thread:

Great write up. Thanks. I believe the issue with mine is the speed sensor that it looks like may have been the one you damaged. I don't suppose there was any part numbers on that sensor so that could be purchased seperately so I wouldn't have to buy a whole distributor for one failing component?

No, I don't think there was a separate part number for those.
 
in sourcing oem out-of-production parts for the sc400 found that for oem the still-available fzj80 brake vacuum one-piece hose can be made into the two needed to replace the out-of-production 1uz-fe hoses
been doing that wherever have to
also 1fz and 1uz knock sensor connectors are same but knock sensors are different part numbers 😑

All new timing components 8 total
Slipper, chain 13559-66011
Damper, chain 13561-66010
Chain sub-assy 13506-66010

Gear, pump drive 13522-66030
Tensioner, assy 13540-66011
Gasket, chain 13552-66010
The gear pump drive and rotor crank are for the crank position sensor and oil pump drive gear these do not need replaced maybe but they are cheep and available so why not while you’re rebuilding.
Also bought a new aisin timing cover
Part # TCT-073
Timing cover o rings three total
O ring, 96721-24022

Something looked weird! After almost installing The aisin timing cover I realized it’s missing the machining for the fipg on the new cover?? You can see on the old cover it has a grove on the perimeter for the fipg to sit. Not sure if this would be an issue?? Not gonna risk it because pulling the cover is a huge pain in the ass in the truck.

Disregard found a photo of a new Toyota one and it’s the same. Maybe a better design with flat sealing surface? What do the gurus think?

Everything we seal on planes at work is a flat machined surface
Do you use a gasket on the flat surfaces or a FIPG like product? seems odd the old one has groves like the upper and lower oil pans. But Toyota is always redesigning stuff. Usually flat machined surfaces have a gasket of some sort like the metal crush ones on all the block and head surfaces. Was just hoping someone has installed a new timing cover without the groves and used FIPG with no issues. @SNLC?
 
What gauge wire did you use? And how did you route it? Looks good
Thanks man. Since it's for the coil side of the relay(doesn't carry a load for those that might not be aware) I went with 4/22 gauge for ease of routing.

I'll take a pic of how I routed it in just a bit.

Edit* routed through the drivers side grommet, up and behind my switch pro, across the firewall with the dual battery setup, finally around and down to the blue sea by the air box

You can see the bundle in the middle, top, of the firewall.

The cover may not be sourced from Toyota but, it is a Toyota cover. See the circled area below, they ground out the Toyota name before selling.

I can see them on occasion. I just laugh because usually when I see them they're on something that'll never need them

When I was in Oregon a rig was trying to use them to get out of the sand. I got tired of watching and winched them out.
I use 'em on occasion for croissant + latte runs.
