Hey guys, does anyone have the dimensions for the Miller 8350 timing chain tool? I want to make it. Thanks!

 

you can rent them at airram.com i think there might be a DIY for making your own online somewhere.

 

AirRam says "Temporarily out of stock". I've googled "dimensions", "measurements", and any other way I could think of, and haven't found them. It's just a damn plastic wedge with a rope. I thought I'd try to make a couple of them out of a hard plastic or wood with 550 cord. If anyone has a linky to those dimensions online, please post! Thanks.

 

i thought i read people were using those rubber door stops.

 

Are you talking about the tool that holds the chains to the idler gear? If so, I have one at work.

 

yeah hes talking about the cam wedge tool.

 

When I go home this weekend I have the exact real tool and I can take pics a measurements for you.

 

Yeah, the little plastic wedge with the rope and handle to retain the timing chain tensioner. I figured that I would just put a short loop on a homemade wedge. I picked up an '00 regular cab with a 4.7 5 speed (cheap), and need to pull the right bank head for coolant loss. I was a dealer tech for 11 years, and don't remember ever pulling a 4.7 head. I did put HO cams in my old Dakota around '02 though...back when we could still get 'em. I'd appreciate the dimensions on it if you think of it there. Thanks!

 

Did anyone ever find any dimensions for this? I know this is an old thread, but I need them also. Thanks.

 

Did anyone come up with the dimensions of the wedge?
