I need to replace the distributor in my '87 4Runner 22RE, and I'm trying to get a estimate on what price would be reasonable. Should I go with a reman. unit, or purchase new from Toyota. A brief search and it looks to be a couple hundred bucks from the dealer, is there any place cheaper that one could recommend? Thanks in advance for any input.

 

if the pick-up just went out i would think that you could buy that from a parts store, you wouldn't need a whole new dist. but if the bushings are shot, i would start getting prices at wrecking yards, because i doubt a new one is cheap

 

i looked at distributors when my igniter went out a few months ago.... list price on them from NAPA was $260!!! the price was the same at all the parts houses i checked too... kragens, pepbpys, etc, however they didnt have them in stock....
