2000 4.0L, i took the heads off my truck so i could rebuild my lifters, and just to see the general condition of things as my engine has a bit of a ticking sound to it. I replaced the rocker shaft assemblies form a picknpull yard perviosly cause the rocker arm were pitting pretty bad. That took most of the ticking away but now its returned about 2 months later. So after gettin the head off my brother noticed a large crack over cylinder 6 right between the valves, so i guess that does that. So i currently have 98tm heads and they seem really few and far between where i am. All ive read, says the only difference between the 95tm/98tm is the exaust port being bigger. If this is the case i dont see why i cant use it, it has the same fast burn chamber.
