Dodge Ram 1500 Timing Chain
Timing chain of Dodge Ram 1500 vehicles plays the important role of coordinating the cyclic movements of the camshaft and crankshaft for correct valve timing required for the smooth engine operation. The Timing Chain is located at the front of the engine, it runs in a splash lubrication system and is mainly featured in engines with high displacement. Dodge Ram 1500 models have adopted metal timing chains since 1990s and are preferred due to their durability and less reference as compared to rubber based timing belts. Though timing chains are pretty dependable, there can be problems with the lubrication and the tensioner and chain guides, which can be identified if the car's engine sounds like a rattle box. For pushrod engines, a short throw chain drive reduces noise and wear, and the Dodge Ram 1500 is an ideal application for this.

Dodge Ram 1500 Timing Chain Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install Timing Chain in 3.7L V6 and 4.7L V8 engine on Dodge Ram 1500?A: The removal of timing system components begins with precautions given the complexity of the system and also possibility of severe engine damage as a result of an unskillful handling. These involve disconnecting the battery, draining the cooling system and removing various engine parts like the cooling fan, drivebelt, fan shroud, heater hoses, radiator hose, power steering pump, alternator, air conditioning compressor etc. The valve covers are then taken off to aid camshaft sprocket alignment and prevent piston-valve contact also. This process requires that you position No. 1 pis- ton at TDC on the exhaust stroke and remove crankshaft damper/pulley timing chain cover and water pump as a unit noting location and bolt types. Additionally these secondary chain tensioners are removed while taking care to detach camshaft sprockets without damaging camshafts. At this stage again these chains have been removed as one assembly along with idler sprocket and crankshaft sprocket that must be positioned accurately for maintaining alignment throughout this entire step. This is followed by inspection of components such as wear or stretch in chains plus proper operation of tensioners/guides. For installation purpose they are reassembled onto idler sprocket while carefully aligning camshaft chains together with primary chain right on a bench top. After that re-check every process applying it again into another engine revolution through two complete turns before finally tightening all remaining bolts with sealer/gasket integrity kept up to its capacity. It ends by changing oil filter as well as filling up cooling.
