Im not sure what car the instructions above are for, but it's not a Cressida. They dont have upper front control arms.
Anyways,
You remove the brake line, brake caliper, brake rotor. Then you remove the sway bar end link that attaches to the shock housing. Next remove the lower 2 shock bolts and the 3 upper mount bolts in the engine bay. Then you push down on the lower control arm so that you can remove the entire shock/spindle assembly.
Then take it to a shop to compress the spring to take it all apart.
On 1997 & prior
models, the timing BELT interval for vehicles operated under conditions of excessive idling &
or low speed driving for long distances, replace at 60,000 mile intervals.
since the cressida is obd1 you will need to find the diagnosis plug in the engine bay and short out two terminals and look at the cluster and count the amount of times the check engine light blinks and pay close attention to the pauses. i was able to see what the codes meant because my school has the alldata program..
Here are detailed, step-by-step instructions for the removal and re-installation of your starter motor. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Holy hell these engines are tight. I had the same prob with my 88. Finally figured it out with about a good foot and a half of ratchet extensions. It'll help if they have wobbles on the end. You'll have to guide the socket by feel (cause you can't see the bolt, but once you're on it the extentions should get your ratchet in a spot where you can give it a good 1/4 turn
