Hi storm.

I'm Rob. I will help you with your question today.

The following items are replaced recomended repairs when doing a timing belt job.

Water pump

Timing belt

Timing belt tensioner(s) it may have two tensioners.

camshaft seal or seals if dual overhead cam

Crank shaft front seal

Valve cover gasket and spark plug tube seals.

coolant

Suggested checks and repair if neccesary..

All drive belts

Spark plugs

Spark plug wires

Distributor cap and rotor if equiped.

Radiator hoses

Thermostat

Motor oil and filter

Air filter

the average shop price for this job is aroung $200.00 for the timing belt and around $80.00 more for the tune up or so. In parts you will spend around $500.00 depending on where you get the parts and labor will vary depending on what shop you go to and what their labor rates are but these are estimates that I use at my shop.

The fisrt section are things that need to be replaced every 60k miles. If you do everything at once you tend to save allot of money then if you were to do things seperately.

Thank you for your question, I hope this helps you. Please accept my answer.
