98 Ford Exposition (5.4L)timing chain replacement?

Question

what is the difficulty factor for this job? can it be done by a run of the mill mechanic? any sites to help explain will help. thanx

Answer 1

Replacing the timing chains in this engine is not that difficult, any experienced mechanic should be able to handle it.  The only down fall is that it requires some special tools, these are made for Ford by OTC and are also sold on the open market in Ford Cam service kits by OTC.
