Here is a helpful link to the Toyota/Lexus V8 2UZ-FE DIY timing belt & water pump replacement. +

This of course is a different vehicle but same motor. I bought the TKT-001 kit from Toyolex on Amazon:
All parts are actual OEM parts that Lexus/Toyota uses.
I bought the Toyota red concentrated coolant from Carquest for $27 per gallon (2 gallons) and mixed 50/50 with 2+ gallons distilled water. Much cheaper than buying the Toyota 50/50 blend of coolant where I would need 4 gallons.
I also replaced my upper and lower radiator hoses, spark plugs, pcv valve, cabin air filter and oil filter from Rockauto.com. Good prices and fair shipping.
I sourced anything else I needed locally.
