Timing Chain and Tensioner Kit

This kit is $295. I am not going to do anything right now, but I might just stock the kit and gaskets if I need them. The most recent quote I got was $1600 labor and $700 parts. I am going to study this more, but at 50,000 miles, the chains are fine and I think you can replace the 8 tensioner parts without any trouble if you can reach everything. There are only 14 bolts for all the tensioner parts. If you don't move the chains or turn the engine crank, it should work. All it looks like is slide one out and one in at a time and its done. More study to come.
