6.5T Timing Chain

I've never seen one break, but they all stretch, babied or not, and your timing gets further off over time as the chain develops more slack.
Everyone I know that has changed theirs liked the result. I don't personally know anyone who has done the gear-drive instead of chain, but they are supposed to be a good thing, too.

Did mine at 127K since I was doing the water pump anyway, and I was very happy with the results.
Damn I appeared to have dropped a whole paragraph on save....
It got me a much improved idle, more ass-o-meter power or snappier power and a bit more mileage.

You are to replace the timing chain and injectors every 100,000 mile just food for thought
