Default Timing Chain Cover gasket replacement

Hey guys,

My 99 Disco II let go of its chain cover gaskets. Pretty nasty coolant leak. I have a guy replacing them. Is there anything else I should have done while in that deep? Should they re-tork the head bolts? Just looking for advice.

Thanks

In that case if it ain't broke don't fix it.
Do the 60K service, look at the first sticky at the top of the section.
Replace your front drive shaft U-joints if they have not yet been done.
