finally, a TC tensioner replacement video without having to cut pushrods and buy a $1200 - $2000 'upgrade' kit. Cutting pushrods just introduces another point of failure, doesn't give you an opportunity to inspect the rockers and replace the breather filter element. I did my 2006 Nightrain 13,000 miles ago; I got over 50,000 miles on the original set. The tensioners looked about the same as the one's in your vid with about an ⅛ inch of wear and lots of pitting on both the inner and outer. I didn't touch the pump but did replace the inner cam bearings with B-148s. Anyway great job on the vids- I really like your channel. Thanks for making these.

hydraulics don't really fully remedy the tensioner shoe problems; if you have the extra money and ability, check the run-out on your crank if it's within the acceptable limits(30 thou i think) upgrade to gear drive($600-ish) also swap out your bearings to Timkens like the other two said. If that's out of the question, go with hydraulics, bearings, and polish the backside of your chains, they can be a little rough/sharp and polishing them up helps them glide on the shoes better causing less wear.

I have done many of the shoe replacements. I guess my point was, if you're going to open up the cam chest, make a permanent fix. Of course the pinion shaft RO has to be within spec in order to install gear driven cams. Otherwise the next best solution is to upgrade to the hydraulic tensioner shoes and larger oil pump.

£390 over here. Cyco replacement pads Remove the tank, exhaust, rocker covers & supports, fit the tensioner pads then assemble using your stock pushrods. The costs are £40 for the tensioners, £30 for the cam change gasket kit, £20 for new Koyo inner cam bearings and £300 for 6 hours labour. Total £390 For a just look and check and put all back if OK its £250. But its only another £140 to install new pads when the mechanic is at that stage . So basically unless you do the look see yourself , you may as well just get the guy to put in new pads and be done with it , even if no need.

I know you mentioned taking off the tank and carb before the video. Any big differences or advice for fuel injected models? I’m going to be replacing tensioner shoes and inner bearings (not the oil pump) on a 2003 softail deuce in a few weeks.

I’m a little Leary about doing this job but just got 04 Fatboy with 27k on it, so gotta be done. My biggest concern is removing top end to get at push rods, then getting all that adjusted and back together. Would like to get the removal tool you used for inner tensioner to avoid cam removal. Is it HD ? Should I take this project on ?

If it really bothers you, you always have the option of doing the cut pushrod method.

Just a quick observation, why not cut the old pushrods and replace with adjustable pushrods save a ton of work???

Because then it would not be the actual replacement procedure, it would be an alternate procedure, and i would forgo any work i could have done on the top end.

Sure appreciated this video. At l37,600 miles on my 05 Roadking,mine are probably past due although still quiet and no signs of tensioner material in my oil filter pleats. I am wondering what the purpose of the black skid is that was removed for access to one of the cam plate bolts?

Great video, thanks. Wondering if the lifters are found to be faulty and in need of replacing, would the pushrods need to be replaced also. Thanks again.

Excellent video and most appreciated. A question concerning the tool used to remove the rear tensioner. Is this a HD part? I'm sure it's not absolutely necessary, but man it looks like it makes the job easier. Part number or source would be very appreciated.

Was the part number and source for the tool not specifically mentioned in the video? Maybe in Part 2?

@@delorean1 I'm not sure it's mentioned in part 2, but I did track down a couple sources for it. An individual maker who unfortunately stopped making the tool this year. There is another outlet through an online bike parts marketplace. Waiting to receive mine to judge quality.

The tool made all the difference. I destroyed a tensioner trying to do it without it and I found one and ordered a new tensioner and it went right in no problem.
