02 Explorer Timing chain making noise between 2K - 3K

Timing chains aren't all that hard to replace, if you are concerned about it and have at least a moderate understanding of auto mechanics...and of course, a manual. I have done all of my timing chains in the past, and like everything else, it's tools, parts, time, and patience. Follow the manual and know the quality of the work done, rather than questioning the mechanic, as I know a few people to do. That said, I haven't had to replace any timing chains until well past

Thanks for the reply John, You're correct, I can do the repair fairly easely. But my point is , this truck is only 3 years old with 55K miles on it. Ford has a service bulletin out to solve this issue. The service bulletin is an admission of defect. Should I keep making noise about this and try to have Ford make it right to me or am I wasting time ?
