OMT 3.6 Pentastar Timing Tool Kit, Camshaft Holding Tools For Jeep Ram

Great DIY kit, this kit worked great for me to lock up the timing chain on my 3.6L Pentastar in my 15Grand Cherokee to be able to remove the cam shafts so I could replace the rocker arms and lifters. I’d probably want something more robust if I was a mechanic in a shop but I’m a dude in my driveway and this kit worked very well for me. I watched a YT video of a guy using a kit like this which what lead me to buy it. I would recommend it for any DIYer

Works perfectly for the 3.2 and 3.6 pentastar!

Kit worked great for me. Was worth the purchase to pull and reinstall camshafts

I use it for 2014 Jeep . works as it should

This tool works great a must have when timing a 3.6 engine

Worked as well as it should on a 2013 3.6 jeep except the left side (bank2) wedge kept trying to slip up and out. Had to brace it with a block of wood to keep a few pounds on it to be sure it stayed. The tip on the tensioner ratchet puller is a mm or so too long so it takes some wiggling to get it in the tensioner release hole. The cam block on this side was a little tight and took some tapping in, despite moving camshafts to mesh the teeth up. Didn't use the bank 1 tools because this job didn't require it but if it works like bank 2 did, it's plenty usable.

Title says it all. It just works for the first gen Pentastar engines. The ratchet retractor tool for the left head chain tensioner can use a shortening of the engagement end (shorten about 1mm with a bench grinder or equivalent for ease of use) just like the ones supplied with OEM tool. The right bank phaser/cam sprocket lock tool is not precut shorter to work easily on front wheel drive / AWD transverse mount engine applications so you will need to cut the non engagement end off for most transverse mounted engine applications to get a socket on the phaser bolts. You will also need a very shallow 36mm socket for journeys and cherokees.

Claims it fits the Gen 3 3.6 Pentastar but does not. Timing blocks will not fit between the cam phasers. They can be modified to fit, but the tensioner releasing forks are entirely wrong. Driver side fork is too thick to fit behind the phaser without pulling it off some first, passenger side fork is the entirely wrong model and really doesn’t work. Cheap plastic also, the passenger side fork broke a piece of the bolt guide slot off and dropped down my timing cover. Luckily the plastic caused no damage but very frustrating to say the least.

I did the rocker arms and lifters job with this kit on my 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan. It's hard nylon, not cheap plastic.

The Kit was exactly what I expected and arrived earlier than anticipated.

Mal producto,es herramientas usadas, está maltratada,nada más que me urge pero es una falta de respeto para el cliente.😡😡😡

Worked as needed to and a great alternative to screwdrivers and pry bars for tensioner parts that can't be seen and best moved with plastic on plastic. Do not see them lasting long in a busy shop that changes 3.6 top end parts all day but that's not their intended lifespan and for careful casual use they work very good. Even then at the cost of replacement they are worth billing for every job if surviving single use. Important to gently "rock" the cams back and forth to align the phazer gears for the locking blocks as prying or hammering will only destroy them quicker and it's not necessary.

this item fits perfect and holds all parts firm, well worth the cost
