Hi Guys,
The timing chain rattle on my '97 SOHC 4.0L (112000 miles) is getting louder and making me increasingly nervous, but it seems that the rattle is coming from the front of the engine so I'm hoping to only replace the front chains without removing the engine from the vehicle. Is this possible? and if so, have any of you guys already done this job and can give me a step by step list of what I need to do and any tips along the way?
Any help would be gratefully received.
