DPTOOL 303-1655 Camshaft Aligning Timing Tool Kit for Ford 3.5 V6 EcoBoost

If you are attempting a water pump replacement or a timing chain job on a 2017 Ford Taurus, do not attempt it without this DPTOOL Camshaft Holding Kit. I used this set for a full timing service, and it provided the "set it and forget it" peace of mind you need when the guts of your engine are exposed. Precision & Fitment: These holders are machined to tight tolerances. They dropped onto the camshaft flats perfectly with zero "slop" or wiggling. When you are torquing down cam phasers or tensioning the chain, even a millimeter of movement can throw your timing off, but these held the cams rock-solid throughout the entire process. Durability: Unlike some cheaper, thinner versions that can flex under pressure, these are heavy-duty plate steel. The finish is smooth, so there were no concerns about marring the camshaft surfaces. Why You Need This Specific Kit: Confidence: It completely removes the "did it move?" anxiety when you rotate the engine over by hand for the first time after the job. Ease of Use: The bridge design makes it obvious when you are at Top Dead Center (TDC). Value: This kit is a fraction of the cost of the Rotunda factory tool but performs the exact same function for the DIY mechanic. Pros: Perfect Fit: Confirmed compatibility for 2017 Taurus 3.5L Ti-VCT. Rigid Construction: No flexing under the tension of the timing chain. Complete Set: Comes with the holding tools and the tensioner locking pins.

Great tool for my wife's 2018 Ford Explorer with the 3.5 L V6. I did file down a few of the flat areas because the tolerances were very tight. Very stout. I hope I never have to use it again lol

Worked as it was advertised.

Fit pretty well. Kept my cams in place while replacing a water pump.

The only issue was the T55 bit is too soft and stripped out a phaser bolt when it twisted in the head of the bolt. The rest worked just fine

Great product Great price great packaging

These tools did the job worked great couldn’t have got this engine back in time without them

There’s not much use in paying factory special tool prices on a big chunk of steel. I did this job on a ‘13 Explorer XLT in my driveway and this set was vital to its success. I don’t know what the factory set looks like but fit, finish, storage of this set was all great

Works great

Excelente calidad

En la venta todo muy bien, sólo que la pieza tiene defectos el material es demasiado blando, se descalibro al momento de utilizarla no me funciono y tuve que regresarla!

El acabado de la herramienta está bien pero podrían mejorarlo.

Worked as expected
