Can anyone help with a laundry list of parts needed for the timing belt replacement? I have a '98 2.3cl with 114k miles.

I searched and didn't find too much info. Any help is appreciated.

I found some kits on rockauto.com, but not sure which kits are needed.

How much can I expect a shop to charge to replace the belts, plugs and water pump?

Thanks, can barely think with a newborn in the house. Lol.

Should I go into a shop with my own parts? Any other suggestions would be welcomed.

Can anyone help to confirm all parts needed?

 

You should replace the following when doing the timing belt:
Timing belt
Balance belt
valve cover gasket
cam seal
crank seal
water pump
alternator and ac belt
power steering belt
If your bringing it to a shop, I would let them buy the parts. If you decide to bring your own parts, make sure they will warranty the work.

 

Around here in the Chicago area, they like to charge about $500-800 for the 4cyl. I've always replaced my own timing belts. Call around a bit and see what their price is.
