They make a tool for doing the chains. Its simple as falling off a log and inexsensive. I got one and it has two sets of prongs fastened to a locking plate that holds the chain in place. Just put the prongs through the sprocket holes after you line up you chain and turn the handle. Eezy Peezy. No messing around with zip ties. Part # 522902. Azone, Oriellys, Rock Auto I dont remember where I got it.

Got a couple suggestions for you My first time doing this one but it might help some people before I tore the timing apart I marked the cams with a marker that way when the one on the left jumped. I left the old sprocket on there and I used a plier style oil filter wrench to turn it back on the gears to where it's supposed to be so I didn't have to go through all of that I have pictures but I'm not sure how to upload to show. it helped me out quite a bit I hope it helps somebody else and yes someone before you put the wrong bolt in on the left they are both matching bolts you can see the out line from the washer on the sprocket. Thanks again this video helped

That bolt on the passenger side cam is the wrong bolt. It should have a washer like the driver side. That's why the 19mm was loose.

Thanks! Doing this now and your video was a good walkthrough of the process. BTW that top little sprocket is the balance shaft.

Excellent video... I have two questions. Do I have to remove the admission body as well as the coils, injectors, and spark plugs to do this job? Or, in your case, were the cams also serviced, and that's why it is all disassembled? The other question is about the tensioner piston in the left side chain. I saw in another video that a mechanic removed the constraint plate that comes with it in order to increase the oil pressure to that piston and avoid issues with it down the road. Would you do that?

I was definitely going to put the tensioners in last😂 thank you for saving me some time and a huge headache

I purchased the same kit from Rockauto and it had the incorrect tone wheel, so always match the new with the old.

Great 👍 video bro!

I think I should be able to set the timing without the rocker arms installed? Then I shouldn't have to use the vice grips, should work?

Great vid

My v6 is literally at 1 o clock now after tightening my sprocket. Since all the chains were on it rotated everything just that little bit as well. How can i move it back

What kit did you buy that has a separate timing chain sprocket without the whole assembled sprocket set? Around 7:30

Hey, I think that it has came in my case with or situation that I have change my timing on this type engine 4.7 dodge ram 1500 4.7 v8 4-4 slt truck over 317.830 on the dash but my question how much would this cost from someone professionally doing this for me..is what I am looking for here??

Good working

Alas cuantas vueltas buelben a coincidir los puntos ??

I've had to use vise grips also but there is a tool you can buy to lock the cams in place to do this job

So I screwed up and took off 2 tensioners then I used a trick to get the top sprocket loosed by putting a rachet on both and while holding the driver side still I turned the passenger side and it turned a lot what do I do anyone

Where do I buy the engine book to tell me what torque for the bolts for 05 jeep grand Cherokee 3.7 v6 I can’t find anything

Doesn't the balance shaft sprocket timing mark go up instead of down to line up with main sprocket?

What was the tork specs of guides and tensioner

Nice 😊😊

Always turn the torque wrench back to the lowest setting........or it wont hold its spec near as long............your money not mine tho.....

I did mine and cranked over but engine not running I plug my code reader and it said loss cam or crankshaft signal any idea about it? Thanks

Hows the thing running now days?

The intake has to come off?

Way the the six line up to

You should of warned us before about the chain guides now I have to remove the chain again 😢

Jevous remercie
