    Misc parts to replace while doing Timing belt/WP

    Ok....so,

    What other parts can I replace while changing the timing belt/wp?

    What I have on hand:

    Cam seal
    Crank seal
    TB
    WP
    Tensioner
    AC, Alt and WP belts
    VCG (just put a new one on, but might do a valve adjustment while Im in here)
    I have a new tensioner spring and assembly for that on hand too.

    Anything else I need to replace while Im there?

    Im thinking something like:

    Rotor
    Plug wires (plugs are newish already as is the thermostat and all hoses)
    Distrib cap
    Coolant (definately, Im thinking)

    Thanks for some ideas!!

    you have to have a 300 ft-lb torque wrench and some muscle when doing the crank seal, and you may as well do the timing cover gaskets and intermediate shaft seals too.

    if you havent replaced them, the rocker end shaft plugs often leak.
    also if not done, all your coolant hoses.

      Done all hoses already.

      Have 6 or so rocker end shaft plugs on hand too. Thanks I forgot about those.
      Timing cover gaskets? Ill order those. Intermediate shaft seal(s) as well.
