Changing timing belt - what else should I do? 700 1986

I am getting ready to change the timing belt on my 86 745 GLE. I am getting the front seals, and a tensioner. I am also thinking of replacing the harmonic balancer since it is origional and wobbles a bit. I am also getting the counterhold tool for the crank shaft.

Is there anything else that I need or should replace?

The car has 200K. Last timing belt change was at 120K, when the seals and water pump, but not the tensioner were replaced.

Also, how, exactly, do I remove the fan assembly? It appears that in the past the mechanic gripped the outside of the fan clutch somehow. Why did he do this? And do I need another tool?

Thank you,
Steve
