Welp, what was supposed to be a quick weekend AC compressor and condenser replacement and front crank seal has now turned into me pulling my engine. Not 100% sure of what I'm doing but we're gonna learn as we go, and no I will not be taking this to somebody else to do, I am doing it myself. Since I'm pulling the engine I'm going to be replacing the cassettes and front timing chain or whatever the hell the name for all the chains are, any recommendations for links on what brand replacements I should buy for those? I was looking on ford parts and was trying to find a kit but not sure if they sell one as a whole so any recommendations on some quality replacements would be greatly appreciated. Piggy backing off that question, anyone who has done the whole timing chain fiasco replacement, do you have a whole list of parts I should replace while I have the engine out because you might as well since it's out? Any parts lists or advice would be greatly appreciated as I am aiming to get this done hopefully in 2 weeks. I have the 4.0 SOHC by the way. Thank you everyone!
