Default Cam belt change ++

hi! I am going to change the timing belt on my 1991 2,8q. Have anyone tried this without special tools?
And Are there any seals in there its wise to change at the same time i'm in there?

Buy or borrow the tool..can you do the job without it..maybe..but the cam timing will not be right. Could cost you in the long run too with engine damage.

Water pump, pulleys and a new serp belt too..and any seals that are leaking.

The tool:VW & Audi V6 2 Valve & Pin Camshaft Alignment Timing Tool | eBay

I bought a cam KIT that includes all the pulleys, Thermo and water pump. I think there is a small leak there somewhere.
