Timing Belt Change

Hi everyone,
Would anyone have access to a parts list to change the timing belt on a "99" E-22?
800 hours and 20 years, I believe it is about time. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Curtis

Remover one of the VVTi plastic covers I thinks they are held on #10 metric sockets. Remove lanyard and roll engine over to inspect #22 socket on crankshaft. all sections of the timing belt for cracks and missing teeth. Then using a camera with iphone look at and under water pump. If found white and corroded change belt, water pump etc as needed.

I just bought this kit. It's been running great for 2 seasons after I did mine.
https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=3290529&cc=1363553&jsn=591&jsn=591&jsn=591
It includes:
AISIN Water Pump
Hydraulic Tensioner
Koyo Idler Bearing
Koyo Tensioner Bearing
Mitsuboshi Timing Belt
Water Pump Gaskets & O-Rings
I thought these were the best videos for how-to. It is a 2UZ, but it's the same timing belt / water pump and procedure for as the 1UZ.

You might be able to locate a Toyota/Lexus or similar import repair shop to do the job. After doing the job myself Id say its substantially easier than doing one in a vehicle due to the improved access to the front of the engine.Heck if you can drag your boat up to Raleigh NC I would help you do the job.

I'll second the any shop that works on toyota vehicles should be able to do it for you. I had a shop do mine. I pulled the pylon and engine cover off to make it easier for them.

Thank you for the info on rock auto for buying these parts in bulk. I appreciate it as I am looking to take on a big project in restoring an epic 21 and that is a big help for me. One of my friends is the parts manager at Lexus but i don't wangt to burn my bridge and ask him to ordera million parts for me.
