Thanks Martin.I used your extension trick on mine back in October,I guess I had the beveled extension because it worked fine.I would have never thought about extensions made differently.

Hi Dan, I'm glad it did work out for you. Yeah I would have never thought either that the extension would ever make a difference and actually get stuck in your crankshaft. Had to put it out there though didn't went happening anybody else.

The only reason I've been absent is because been working 6 and 7 days a week 10 hour days finally got a little bit of a break so I thought I'd get at least something out there. Don't worry I got a lot more stuff coming.

Muchas gracias desde España, tus videos son muy utiles. un saludo

Thanks I had do the same 04 Chrysler Sebring 2.7 baBy ratchet 1/4 extension long 5/16 socket it worked 👌😁

I wish I would have just got the proper tools to do the job , because my extension is stuck and I hope I didn’t do too much damage to the threads . Thanks for your video though , it has helped me learn how to do my heads on my 4.7

Hi Martin! Unfortunately, I tried the 3/8" 6" socket extension trick and did get it stuck. Any ideas how to remove it. Thanks!

Martin I have a totally unrelated question!! I have a 2002 limited in great condition and I've had plans on modifying it biy I just bought a 2004 overland today!!! My question is on ths headers!!! What if any gains do you feel you got from them? Are they worth doing for a gramd?

@martinbuilt

4 жыл бұрын

When I installed the Doug Thorley Headers with the cat back exhaust I felt a small gain but, this was prior to the HO camshafts, 08 intake and larger throttle body with the ram air system. I do feel the headers were a benefit with the combination of all the other mods that I made later. You may want to just build a performance y-pipe.

I installed the harmonic balancer with a bolt without checking that it needed an installation tool. Do I need to remove it and install it properly? Or did I dodge a bullet and move on?

Sounds like you got lucky and didn't stripe the bolt or the crank.

Hey Martin I'm in the middle of remington my timming chain from my 2006 jeep commander 3.7 but how Am I going to do that when the left crankshaft gear holes are all plugged

@martinbuilt

3 жыл бұрын

the 3.7 is weird that way, I don't know why they had to plug all the holes. You could use a Vise Grip or a chain clamp amzn.to/3lTD3OD on the camshaft (not on the lobe) to loosen the bolt.

I was thinking about doing the same. What is the advantage of the roller timing chain set. I would assume you had to make a a modification to the right cam gear. I'm sorry about the delay on the mugs.

@@martinbuilt In 2007 Chrysler made some changes to the timing chain by converting it to a roller style. Look up on KZread, Cloyes has a video 2007-2013 Chrysler 4.7 timing replacement. Yes I did change over the toner wheel from the 02 onto the 08 sprocket. Also two of the chain guides are different from the earlier model 4.7, other then that it worked out great. I installed a set of H.O. camshafts and what a difference it made. Can't wait to install my 08 engine!!

@@chrisbeitzel4788 thanks Chris, yeah I had thought about doing that myself. But I kept hearing things about a roller chain stretches more than the conventional timing chain. What's your thoughts on that? Is there a performance increase when using the roller? I would imagine there is some less rolling resistance.
