Rope Trick.... V70-XC70

I see that makes sense.

I was not aware that removing the crank pulley was to be considered an intricate job. I know that it can't move because it will go out of sync with the cams....

My haynes book describes how to fabricate a tool to hold the crank while the pulley is removed so the seal can be changed. It also describes how to fabricate a tool to lock the cams in place from the back (dist side) to allow the front seals to be change on these as well.

I've got ~200k miles on my V70 and I need to do the timing belt within the next 10,000 miles. I had been planning on replacing the cam and crank seals while I had everything off... should I be reconsidering?
