Jack of some, definately master of none.
The title should say..SHOULD I CHANGE THE TIMING BELT (cant figure out how to edit it). Just picked up a 99 uzj100 for $10,000 with 170k. Is what sold me was a one owner with no mods and garaged.
I am buying from the dealer where it was traded in.
I called my Toyota dealer with the vin, they told me the service record verbally. This included Toyota dealer service from new till 30k miles. Then from 120-170k at the dealer. From 120k-170k miles it had everything that was recommended done, fluids and filter wise. The differential had a leak, they fixed the leak then the diff went. And they replaced it. Replaced the antenna motor. They repacked the front wheel bearings (?). They did new cv boots.
But.....DID THEY DO THE TIMING BELT before the 120k mile switch back to a Toyota deer that records it?
Should I do the timing belt and water pump on this 100? Estimate came in at $1,000 where I had my Tacoma belt done a few months ago.
OR SHOILD I RISK IT AND DO thefun stuff like SUSPENSION WITH NEW 285 tires?
Thanks for your time.
