    Just Got My explorer and Need help with the following

    timing chain replacement on 4.0 liter sohc

    Did my rear timing chain without removing the engine. You can move the tranny back and put a jack under the back of the engine to make it move away from the firewall with plenty of room to get the job done.

    rear timing chain

    The only thing that pissed me off was the intake and valve cover. There is so much junk on the 4.0 oh and my exhaust it exits out the side in front of the right rear tire. I had to cut the tip off to get it out.
