DIY Timing Belt Replacement

Hi, I replaced timing belt on my 2002 Forester yesterday. Only problem I had was removing crank pulley. I tried conventional methods (strap wrench/breaker bar), but could not budge bolt. I searched NG and learned about the bumping starter method. I was very leary of this method to say the least. I decided to consult my local imports mechanic, he said he used the starter method whenever conventional methods fail. He loaned me a breaker bar, mine was not long enough to reach frame. I carefully positioned breaker bar, one end resting on drivers side frame, making sure to keep bar parallel to crank pulley. I removed plug wires from plugs, bumped starter once and bolt was loose. Rest of job was fairly easy. I used OEM belt and water pump, as many in this NG suggest. The belt has three marks that are aligned to crank and cam sprocket marks. I used a T handle breaker bar in conjunction with a hammer to tighten crank bolt during assembly. Got every thing assembled, hit starter, and was a happy camper, car started and no leak at new water pump gasket. Very productive day, I had to take out a front axle and replace both CV boots before I started on timimg belt job. Thanks to folks in this NG, both jobs went better than expected!
