Since I've replaced timming belts in the past, this job is quite easy. On my 4Runner, I plan to wait til the belt breaks, before replacing. On the safe side, I already have a kit put together with all the parts/SST's to do the job. On long trips to kit goes with me, for local runs, it stays in my garage....
So far I've got almost 160K on the original belt, now I curious just how much longer it'll go. BTW I do remove the plastic timming cover to inspect the belt, especially before the longer trips. The belt still appears to be in excellent shape, no dry rot....
Another side note..... All my other belts are still factory originals, even though I really need to replace the AC belt, it squeals when I first turn it on......
