If you're going to tear it down for the timing belt you have done most of the work for replacing the water pump and belts. If it were me I'd do it all. Also check the front seals, tensioners and idler pulleys while you're at it. The parts are pretty reasonable from Toyota. PM me if you need pricing.

I am going through this now. My Idler Fan Bracket went, and now I am replacing all the other things it messed up on it's way out.Be safe, take the time to check all parts and be on the safe side.
