Which one?
There are multiple timing chains on the SOHC V6: front/left camshaft; rear/right camshaft; crankshaft to jackshaft; and if a 4WD vehicle a balance shaft. The easiest one to replace is the crankshaft to jackshaft. The most difficult is the rear because the engine or transmission must be pulled. See my helpful threads for more related information.
