My 2000 4Runner V6 is almost 90K and timing belt change is due. Thanks to the execellent tech write-up in this forum, I guess I am able to do it myself even though I feel a little nervous (It is very tough job, do you guys think so?).

Having searched the forum, I found that the toughest part of the job is to remove crankshaft pulley. The tech write-up mentions a homemade tool (1/2" thick steel plate with 5" square cut), and a snap on tool.

I can get the snap on tool without problem. However I am curious that if I have to make the similar homemade tool. Can I buy it anywhere? Can anybody shed light on this?

Thanks
