What else should I replace when replacing front crank hub seal?

Besides all the belts-last done at 30k miles-now have 73k miles-is there anything else I should replace while in there?My water pump was replaced at 60k miles.

if the seals from the timing cover have leaks you can change those to,but you have to unbolt the bolts of the oil pan to get the pan lower for removing the cover,(it's not an easy job,but it worked on mine !)

Replace the coolant hoses as they deteriorate over time. Every four years, regardless of mileage is a good rule.

Also it's a good idea to replace the coolant thermostat at the same interval. I've had several fail over the years in different vehicles (including my M5)
These are not cheap; about $140.00 US here for part and the seals but relative to the cost of major service to this car, they're not money...
