I recently purchased a 1998 land cruiser, I have brought the maintanence up to date but I haven't done the timing belt. The belt was done 20k miles ago but 7 years have past since then, I have bought the kit but have no time to do it as I work away from home through the week, we are having the wettest winter since records began so weekends have been a wash out plus there isn't that many hours of daylight, so my options are to wait until spring and change it myself or pay a garage to fit it.
I just want advice on what's best to do as I would prefer to do it myself as there are no land cruiser specialists anywhere near me, I have already bought the parts so a Toyota dealer wouldn't be interested, all genuine parts though.
So would you just pay someone for the peace of mind or wait and do it yourself when the weather is better and the days are longer.
