timing chain

[cmills]

Hi everyone, great site, I've been looking for a while but just joined. I'm looking at getting a 2011 SR5 and I just wanted to verify that the 4.0 V-6 on the 5th Gen has a timing chain and not a belt. I know some of the older V-6's had a belt and 1 of the V-8's right.


Thanks,
Cory

It's a timing chain. Here is good read on the specs and the new engine improvements.Page 9 list the timing chain.

Both versions of the 1grfe have a timing chain.

Page 25. Why the smaller starter? Looks a lot different than previous models.
