I'm also in need of a distributor. The PO actually broke out a section of the top edge of my distributors housing. It looks as though they were trying to change the timing but did not realize that the distributor moves maybe? Anyway does anyone know if a quality distributor is still available for the L134? I've not been too impressed with some of the OMIX parts, anyone with experience with this unit? Thanks a bunch!

What I did is buy a good used distributor from Wally @ Tonka Jeep 612-251-4867 and rebuilt it myself with parts from Willys Distributors (Kurt 760-644-0569). If I had it to do over again I would just sent it to Kurt and have him rebuild it. You get a lot for your money.

Here's the finished product, just received back from him.  It's just as clean and new on the inside...$261 including return shipping.
