thanks for the offers guys. fortunately, i already have it all done!
i wasn't anticipating josh's ability to get the parts in so quick, so the service was done last tuesday/wednesday.
i took my time, and spent about 4 hours working on the truck each day. another important clue (something i thought i wouldn't need) was the SST to hold the crank pulley while torquing the crank bolt.
whether you have a manual or automatic, you'll still need it. phil mentioned just leaving it in gear, but there was still play in the system; enough to let the crank turn over. we tried shoring up the drive shaft. didn't work. so we were left with making a pulley holder anyway!- first out of a 2x4, which broke, then out of an oak 1x2, which did the job nicely.
maybe i'll put some pictures up of the inners of my runner- he may blush though...

Some Pictures of the process:
Bled Runner
Old Belt- I just cut it off, un-tensioned the tensioner, then slipped the new belt on.
New Parts
Drive belts, crank bolt, timing belt, water pump, thermostat, lower rad hose (upper already replaced). also 1 gal red coolant, 1 gal distilled water, rented 250 ft/lb torque wrench-
TOTAL PRICE ~$300 in parts w/tax. nothing shipped.
Crank bolt temp. installed to line up timing marks
Broken 2x4 and usable OAK 1x2 SST pulley holder
New Timing belt/water pump in!
Just followed the 4x4wire walkthrough and FSM guidelines, and got-er-done!

Good to see it all working out nicely.
Aren't factory parts just SOOOO nice?

I'll rephrase: I didn't realize that I'd be getting local parts, and thus able to get the project done sooner? better? and yes, knowing factory parts are in there leave no doubt in my mind they'll last- now it's only the job the installer performed that i'm worried about

WOW 1800??? thats rediculous. I got a new harness for it when I bought the motor and it was only $300
As for cali laws your gonna need to run a cat and posibly the egr stuff but all can be added to this motor to make that legal. I just chose not to because its trailered. I loved the power from the motor aspecialy since it has headers and short intake and straight exhaust. its just the electricle I was having problems with. When I had it running perfect I had people tell me it was the best sounding V6 they have ever heard. It sounded beatiful like a V8.
250K on a 3.0 thats as crazy as the 1800 for a harness. One more thing you could look into it the kit from ORS Ithink they now sell and entire motor/body harness to replace yours and its only like 900

OH and I am buying a new one from http://www.toyotatruckpart.com/default.asp?p=8
for 1500. I have rebuilt one of these before with cheap ebay parts and it didnt turn out too well. It would cost me about 2000 to build it the way I usually build my 22REs(top of the line parts cost more for a reason!)
I dont know what to do for sure though. Any suggestions?
