4L SOHC Timing Chain Alignment Tool Kit?

[BillRod]

Hi Guys

2000 Explorer, 4L SOHC, Auto, 4x4.
Getting closer to pulling the motor so I can replace the Timing Chains.
(Son's truck and he wants to help/learn so only working on when he can be around in the evenings)

I will need to get the Timing Chain Alignment tools.
Usually I don't mind buying tools except when I know I will probably never use them again and they are a couple of hundred bucks.

Anyone have a set to loan, used to sell, or know where to get them without buying at full retail?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Bill

Don't have one, sorry.

I assume you have contacted local auto parts stores, they often have loaner/rental tools
There are a few online tool rental companies.

Yeah I checked all the ones here in town, unfortunately none of the parts houses rent this set.
With as much tech there is written about this I was hoping to borrow or rent from someone. I'll check Ebay next.
