For my 2001 the entire seat has to be removed to remove the handle. We are not all physically capable of doing that.

Not the tensioner. It's down on the back side of the engine. You only need to pull the engine if you are doing a full timing replacement

For just replacing tensioners, it doesn't hurt to soak them in oil overnight and cycle them manually a few times while submerged in oil...

The best guidance I have seen on the 4.0 timing set replacement is a 4 part series that can be found here:

Guess you should look at the sensors on the wheels to see if you have a connection loose or bad wire. If they all look good, you'll need...

That metal fabricated monstrosity looks awful. Best to just find a good pair in a boneyard. I did that and they look like new.

These are over-hyped. The calipers are the same as stock and the pads are the same grade as AutoZone. Spend your money on Akebono...

A rolling box of several tools. Wrenches, sockets, screw drivers, pliers, etc. No cutting tools. Most won't let you in with a sawzall

At least yours is still working. Mine went out over a year ago and I still can't get an aftermarket replacement. I only know about...
