Thanks! Got the whole deal. Chain,gears and tensioner. Yup at the dealer
(extended warranty since I purchased it used). I have just over 50k in
mileage, but the chain was really making a racket. Cost me $106.00
(deductable).
Heres what it would have cost me....
PN Description Cost
83507095 Spocket Package (Chain and Gear Set) 45.85
53021057 Gasket CH(?) 7.91
4883757 Gasket WA (?) 1.61
4897297-AA Seal Package 7.00
53021195-AA Tensioner 22.75
Labor (2.6 hours @ 62.95per hr) 182.56
Total (before taxes) 267.68
Not bad if you ask me....
Can't understand why they had the truck since Tuesday..... ;-)
