I have done some searching around the site but was unable to find anything about anyone attempting to replace the timing cassettes. I have an 01 job 1 4X4 that has had the timing rattle. I switched to thicker oil and it went away. Now I'm at 170k and its back as well as a check engine light. Took it to the dealership and they said the timing chain needs replaced and that I am getting that error code becasue the engine wont keep timing becasue the chain is shot. they qouted me 1300 for the replacement. Has anyone done this themselves successfully? From what I can tell it requires special tools and a good amount of time. Any suggestions?
