Default X300 timing chain vs x350 timing chain. Any difference?
Is there any timing chain difference between the generations? I'm looking for a timing chain for my 04 xjr and keep seeing the older model ones for xjrs
Do they all fit?

What makes you think the chain needs replaced?

There were issues with the earlier years with plastic adjusters.

As i understand things, the later ones are not a problem

The X300 had the AJ16 engine (or the V12) and was an INLINE 6 cylinder.

No similarity at all!!
