[QUOTE="Kornilov, post: 15692428, member: 163077"] Backstory: Acquaintance has a real nice (but high mileage, 175K+) 2006 Explorer Eddie Bauer that he says his mechanic said needs a new 'front timing chain'. Question: Now, I know this engine has a front and rear timing chain. The front chain looks to be straightforward, but my question is that if the truck needs the rear chain replaced, how hard of a job is this and can the work be done with the engine in the truck? I am more than mechanically inclined to do this and have all the tools necessary (including access to the Ford cam/timing tools). Im interested in picking this thing up and flipping it, but I suspect the issue is greater than just a 'front timing chain'. I dont want to buy it and then have to pull the engine. Any advice from guys that have done this previously? [/QUOTE]
