What all did you have to do to fix your 5.4 when you had the timing issue? I ask because I know someone with the same issue and he want's to know what it would take to fix it before he dumps it.
No clue. I remember Jeremey replaced the timing chains and tensioner, but it didn'tfix the noise. There was never a drivability or performance problem, just a weird ticking. Still does it. Might have ended up doing something VCT related? Chet might remember. I'll check my records when I get home
I checked. Cardoc did the timing chain, but I remember it not fixing the issue. Looks like a took it to Varsity two months later and they replaced the throttle body. Can't remember if the problem was related or not. Other than that and a a few bad coils, the motor has been fine. This was around 130k. Has 230k now. Runs fine, but has a very light ticking.

Only one more picture to go...
:(
The front of that frame looks cherry
Only driven to the grocery store on weekends by grandma
Engine/trans?
How sad, I really liked this truck. Had a lot of character.
How much for engine and transmission and body
I would have to get $500 for the motor and trans to make it worth my effort to pull it all out. The scrapyard is getting the body/frame/cage.
You going to cut the frame up, or just haul it as one... I could be interested in some frame pieces, or if you want to batch dispose of it, perhaps we could work something out....
When are you taking it?
