98 ranger 2.5 ,5 spd.....really squeaky front end.after lubing it still squeaks alot...any ideas?

Timing belt change interval according to Gates Belts is 120,000 miles for a 1998 2.5 Ranger.

Is this really necessary every 60,000 miles? How much trouble is it to change?

98 Ranger 2.5,5 speed front end REALLY Squeaks loudly....no grease fittings..Ball joints????
