    Ok this will be my second replacement of timing belt. I replace the first one at 95000 and replacing this one at 180,000. I will replace the Timing belt, water pump, thermostat gasket, ac belt, power stering belt, alternator belt. Anything else you guys know I should replace when having this done. Thanks in advance. Rick

    Cam and crank seals. Idler and tensioner bearings. I'm changing the fan clutch mounting bracket tomorrow for a customer because it has developed a annoying grinding sound. Vehicle only has 120K on it. You might want to check that out while you have it apart

    Thanks for the replies. On the Timing belt I'm going with Toyota but is everybody going with Toyota on all the other parts that have been listed or using a big box part store like Napa???? Rick

    I bought an Aisin water pump on ebay for 66.00 including shipping. I did, however, buy the thermostat at Napa. Got the best they made though-$19.00 damn dollars!

    I believe most people will say go OEM on everything. I have to admit, I would hate to have to go back in there to replace any part in less than 90,000 miles!

    I wish I could have ordered that from ebay. It's a better deal than what I have pieced together.Stealership charged me 97.00 for timing belt. Saw on line I could got OEM belt for 40.00. My belt broke yesterday going home from work. I really thought my fuel pump had gone out but when trying to start the truck It sounded like belt had broke. Got it towed to father-n laws and we took a quick peep and saw the belt was broke. Now I will get into it tonight and maybe nothing frose up. I think the belt was from Napa and had about 80,000 miles on it. Went with a OEM belt this time. Rick

    No not really. I can't tell you for a fact that something didn't freeze up and brake the belt. I will dig into it tonight. Also I can't tell you that a OEM belt doesn't brake early. I just went with a OEM belt this time. But looking out on the web you can order them cheaper if you have a little time to wait.
