Default '02 model timing belt replacement

Just finished one for a family member, it's not for the faint of heart. If you don't have a good impact wrench (I didn't) that crank bolt is a BEAST! Just take your time, be patient and have a 200+ pound assistant handy to pull that breaker bar.

Did you replace the cam seal crank seal and waterpump along with the job? Those 3 are a must if not

Does the tensioner and tension spring also need to be replaced when changing the belt?

I changed the water pump and the tensioner, all the seals looked good.

so the point of the thread was make sure you have a nice big breaker bar and a heavy person?
