Aftermarket timing belt kit?

Does anyone have experience with these kits or should I just buy factory parts?

I think you mean timing chain kit. Eschew the ebay kits. Oddly enough, there is no complete factory kit, just the individual parts, and they are spendy. Get a kit from Engnbldr.com.

93 V6 4x4 pickup has a timing belt and this is the kit to fit my truck. Just need to know if anyone has used this before

Price almost looks too good to be true. I'm always suspect about buying cheap parts, especially ones that require a lot of labour and time to replace. I bit the bullet and used OEM parts from the dealer when I did my belt.

You would be looking at about that price for the kit w/o the water pump from a reputable parts store. A WP is about 60-80 bucks in addition to the kit. If you have any questions about the install, just PM me. I've gotten pretty good at it.
