Check that it actually needs one. The earlier DL motors are gear driven. The later ones have a belt. Check the timing cover. If its plastic, then its got a belt. If its alloy, then it has gears.

I know alot of people reccommend "Gates" timing belts, is that right Tuff?

This is all I could find on their web site though. This is their Daihatsu section for the Gates Powergrip timing belts or something like that anyway!

Except that listing shows as a 1.6 litre petrol. Thats a Feroza. The Rocky petrol is a 2 litre, and the diesel isnt even mentioned, which is typical.
