Default Question for those who have replaced their lifters...

search results no good.

Where did you get them?

How much did they cost?

How long did the work take?

Difficulty on a 1-10 scale?

Any special tools needed for the job?

TIA

Default I recomend u get urself a bentley manual for tasks like these

You need to remove both the timing belt and seprentine belt, remove the camshaft, You'll need basic tools (sockets and ratchet) plus a couple of special tools such as the cam holding tool and the crankshaft holding tool. You must also have a torque wrench since its crucial to torque the caps to secure the camshaft. I haven't replaced mine but i've looked at the bentley manual and saw what is needed to do.

IF cams come out - one has to undo the belt too right?
