Default Timing chain adventure

Hi all ,I will be preparing for the complete timing chain repair on my 2000 xjr with 54,000 that I've had since new. I will be doing water pump all hoses. new belt etc. Any help from the forum would be appreciated. I am mechanically inclined but need guidance. Please anyone that has the lockdown tools either to borrow or sell please let me know. Thank You all. I do plan to buy oem parts .

Download my copy of the ENGINE REPAIR COURSE 168 from my Jaguar Training days.

It is on the internet.

I already have this on several computers as well as a paper copy but a 12 second internet search yielded this result.
