Hey everyone I'm kind of new to this site. I bought an 04 f150 a few months ago and the phasers are ticking and I'm pretty sure my tensioner seals have failed so I'm going to tackle the project in the near future. If anyone has any tips or things I should worry about let me know. I'll post pics of the job when it's done!

 

The best advice I could give you would be to subscribe to this thread and read it THOROUGHLY. Good luck. Looking forward to seeing those pictures.

Good advice, read the "Final guide" thread and buy OEM parts. The first 2 or 3 pages from the "Final Guide" thread got me through it. Also, there are pics posted of the cam lobe direction that you need to make sure that you look at. Good luck.
