 ...and the labor is a bitch too. Can you buy a metal sprocket? My
 timing chain is slapping and my 96 only has 21k on it!

Labor???? HA! The only way I pay someone to work on my truck is if it's
something I can't do. It wont take long to do a timing chain/sprocket
replacement. Anyways, even if it does, its tones cheaper than what the dealer
or a shop would charge. This way, I can justify buying something new for my
Dak out of how much I saved in labor by doing it myself.
