Please help found timing chain guide pieces in oil pan need estimate for whole timing chain system including cam phasers tensioners and guides 2006 5.4 3v

 

I have a 2006 4X4 XLT, can anyone tell me what the best brand of timing chain and phaser kits that will not go out in 10,000 miles later.

 

Ford and only Ford. Honestly, I would do something like this http://www.livernoismotorsports.com/product/LPP823113 with a phaser lockout kit.

 

Thanks I didn't know if there were any better after market kits than ford,
Thanks 4.6 Owner

 

Oem select ebay is one source. Most of the timing kit $ 798 . Lash adjusters and rollers $265 . metal seal less ratcheting tensioners around $100-- really recommend using these tensioners . . Amazon oil pump melling 360 around $100. '
Fairway ford online is another bulk supplier .
The lockouts don't fix anything and they cost $700 and its one time tune to fool your pcm . Put your money on a real fix . If you lose your PCM its another $700.
As you can see the parts aren't cheap but it should last another 150k if done right .
In my opinion if you get 300k out of an engine you are doing okay .

 

Nice Post lots of good info in these links

 

I'm looking at a 2007-2010 5.4 what are the red flags or things to look for? Is the 4.6 2v or 3v more ideal?

 

I know it's been a while since you asked but I wish I'd read the thread about the cam phasers when I was looking at buying my truck: https://www.f150forum.com/f4/final-r...-sound-141266/
