Mopar Performance Double Roller Timing Chain/Gears?

Oh yeah, that reminds me of the question I've always had when looking at pictures of the Gibsons: How difficult is it to get at the spark plugs?
Thanks again!

They are cheaper at your dealer I got mine for $52.00. As for the Gibson's they have not given me any trouble in over 5 years of use and they look like they will last another 20 years. No leaks, no cracks, re torque once and have never looked back. I also like the Mopar performance gaskets over any I have used including Felpro.
My local dealer wanted $72.00 and could not find the tensioner. I ordered from http://www.mopartsracing.com/parts/ram.html and paid $58.00 today, and ordered tensioner as well.

5 & 7 are the worst to get to due to the brake booster, the rest are easy as pie to change out. Pic makes them look bad, but are in very good shape.

When it comes to ordering Mopar Performance parts it's best that you give them(dealer) all the part numbers you need. If they can't find those parts or match the web prices it's time to find a diff dealer. My CDN dealer matches the prices from that U.S web site. It might also help if you say you are part of a Mopar Club to get a discount.

Well i replaced my timing chain and gears with the brand you get in advanced auto parts i forgot the name but it was only $40. It was just a single roller tho i dont care about double. The engine stock used a single roller and the chain when i replaced it at 123k was only stretched a little.
I did notice a power increase with the new one..
As for as mileage and ower for double roller i heared a double actually lowers gas mileage
Here is a pic of mine when i replaced it a few months ago
