Great video. I did a cam chain etc. on a 94 BMW six and it was remarkably similar to this . Noted in this video some bolts are stretch bolts - I may have missed it but did you get new stretch bolts ? Am glad to see the engine does not need to be lifted to do the job . Glad you used a complete kit with all new gears . Seen folks put new chain on old gears - will rattle like crazy in less than 10K miles . Wish I did not know that. Even at $2K for the repair the mechanic earns their pay if doing it right.
I did this job for a friend so I didnt even charge that much. I did replace all the stretch bolts and I agree with replacing the gears, you definitely need to do this job right to save money in the long run. Thanks for watching!
I will be working on the full length timing chain replacement with torque specs and tightening sequences and can have it live within the next 10 days. That video will take a second due to details. I would definitely replace it while everything is fine. Let me know if you have any questions during the repair
16-20 hours all together. I spread the entire job out over 3 days so I didnt exhaust myself. First day was strip down and be prepping for install the next day, 2nd day replacement, 3rd day put it all back together and test. Alot of work but ALOT of money saved as well. Thanks for watching
@@Sellthoseflippingcars yes, I would like to have it as well. My 2011 ford f150 ecoboost is doing the same thing. Going to try and do it alone in my driveway as well. Greatly appreciated if you could share this information.
Video description now has an updated parts list. Everything that was in the video is now listed. I even put the AC belt there as well. Let me know if you have any other questions.
The oil pump belt, as in the serpentine belt? Because that is the only belt I didnt replace with this engine. I didnt replace it because the customer stated they didnt want it replaced. Thanks for watching!
I have the 3.5 getting the cam phasers replaced under warranty. Truck has 75000 miles. Would you recommend replacing the timing chain since the engine is open? Txs

Any update on how the phasers and chain are holding up? Assuming they’re the aftermarket ones you listed in the description from Amazon!
Truck is running strong and parts holding up still
I have a 17 expedition with 210,000 mi on it and I haven't had any issues yet so I'm going to go ahead and do the timing job before anything happens

Need to use full synthetic oil like Mobil or Castro I have did job on truck with 150+ miles and engine where much cleaner
I told the owner of the vehicle the same thing, thanks for watching!
@@Sellthoseflippingcars Yes I use Mobil One 5W-30 with 5K oil changes and at 225k miles smooth and quiet engine that still runs like new . 3.7 liter .
Nice choice!
How do you know where to place the chains for the timing?
Which chain are you talking about? The one for the phasers or the main timing chain?
Any way I can get a full parts list army guy here try to do this alone in my driveway!
I will work on that brother

@@Sellthoseflippingcarsfollowing! Anything on the parts list? I just purchased a 2013 with 200k miles and eventually will need to look into this.

My timing chain is broke, will I need to replace the chain too or can I only change the guide?
I would replace it as a whole, I attached the timing chain kit in the video description.
Why did you not replace the oil pump belt?

I would, but they will charge you
My mechanic is saying he has to take the cab off for this operation to be done Is this true?
HELL NAWWW!!
find a new mechanic
What?! The process for this repair is done in the video. You don't need to take the cab off. That is crazy they said that
Agreed lol
The cost of parts is over 2k! Not sure where the info comes from....
It comes from me doing the repair myself and getting the parts for this timing chain replacement. If you paid over $2,000 then I'm sorry, you overpaid
I got the kit for $630 includes chains, guides, tensioners, and phasers. Just have to buy gaskets.
@@Overall1030where’d you get it from for the price! My 11 3.5 is ready for it.
