So I guess alp 400 together with yirad will be the last elements to enter service as alp 500 is already in service/production

Yes, they are probably the final ground-based sensors together with the passive radar system and STR-800G orbital tracking radar. There will be satellite-based early warning and SAR sensors. I guess we can also count UAV and airplane-based early warning radars, they are all interlinked.

What is the longest distance these radars can detect an f35 and send data to AD or fighters? Any reasonable guesses?

Orbital tracking radar is not useful for the detection of F-35. Its purpose is to detect and track items orbiting Earth.
Passive radar can detect F-35 from several hundred kilometers in favorable conditions. But it is an inherently different sensor compared to active radars and has caveats.

YIRAD is for the detection of ballistic missiles and hypersonic targets at high altitudes. It is not a system tailored towards F-35.
ALP-400G VHF radar can detect F-35 from several hundred kilometers, but it can't provide a precise firing solution.

Next level is ground based bisatatic /multistatic aesa radar.

Murad-600A will have 4x max output power and 4x aperture area compared to Murad-100A. If you do the math (radar equation) in theory this changes will increase the maximum range by 2.828x, so we can safely assume Murad-600A to have at least 2.5x range compared to Murad-100A.

4000 TRM?

4000 TRM?

2304 TRM for the nose(144 subarray, 16x TRM per subarray) compared to 1152 TRM for Murad-100A(72 subarray 16x TRM per subarray) 2x peak power per TRM compared to Murad-100A (30W vs 60W) for a total of 4x max power output. Subarray tiles will be bigger.

Cheek and aft radars rumorud to have 576 TRM/ 36 subarray. 3x576+2304=4032 TRM modules

Dual-band (S/X) radar is planned for block 30
