Dodge 3.9L timing chain, cover, sprockets, waterpump, clutch fan, harmonic balancer, thermostat

Would I be able to do this without doing an oil change??

[@FerKurl]

Yes. Be very careful, drain coolant first, don’t let anything get in the oil, but oil change after highly highly recommended

Great reliable 3.9 v6 motor worth the timing chain repair. Back when Dodge made great engines. Along with that Legendary 318 v8. That customer should have replaced all them worn coolant hoses. Along with water pump shorty hose. That filthy motor needed a steam clean bad before that repair. Great video guys.

How did you bypass ac compressor hoses when you removed it completely. I have a 2002 dakota with same 3.9v6

[@johnnyhatchet420]

Did you use the chain tensioners?

[@AA720Vlogs]

So I got a ‘96 dakoter and she’s got the 3.9l v6 but was wondering what the part numbers and stuff were so I could get the right stuff. I gotta map out the prices and everything first.

😮 thankyou very much for posting and link of tools. I have 2002 Dakota 3.9v6 too it has coolant leak from timing cover gasket. I did waterpump thermostat new tension idler pulley. Remove powersteering check freeze plug behind. After reinstall. Heard a bang something not aligned aint powersteering. Could be time chain. Haven't taken everything off cause im concern about timing cover removal. Then seen this video. Now im going add two three tools to my growing box. If you see amazon thing from your list, thats me. Unless i find same tool locally but doubt it.

Thank you for this! I managed to get everything pulled apart and my parts all cleaned up, but its been 2 weeks and this refresher is exactly what I need before I replace it all! My oil pan gasket got ripped off when I pulled the timing belt cover (heard its common) should I just RTV the hell out of it when i reinstall everything or pull the whole oil pan and replace the gasket? (2003 Dodge Dakota)

Thanks. Excellent video

[@JtTaylor-mx3tm]

Do you have the clutch fan remover in your Amazon list?

[@kennethprovost1413]

Doing a complete timing chain/oil pan gasket now. It's a 95 has no tensioner but a guide. In-between the 98 style.

[@jerrydyer7733]

Can't go wrong with the sprocket hold my beer and watch LoL I can screw up the unscrewable

[@kennethprovost1413]

It's always been a bastard since 96.😂
