120k timing belt replacement.... V70-XC70

Hello everyone.
I am about to tackle the timing belt on my 98 v70 but am curious what the thinking is regarding other ancilliaries at the same time.

I have been told that it is best to replace the water pump (leaking or not), tensioner, idler pulley, crank and cam seals while I am in there.

What did you guys do?

Any indy shop quoted this for $950 including each of the items above but since I can get the parts for about $375, I guess I will bite the bullet and spend a few late nights doing it myself


Thanks
