Generally the answer is no this is not a normal maintence item the timing system on a 22 R lasts for many miles well over 200,000 however....If you have the front of the engine dis-assembled and upon inspection find loose and worn parts definitely replace the chain and any wear blocks ,tentioners or gears associated with the chain.
Yes, it has a chain
It has a chain, they should be replaced every 100,000 but I had an 1987 Toyota pickup with 230,000 and never replaced a thing on it and it ran like a dream. if your truck is running bad then replace it if not. then don't waste time
It must have a timing CHAIN , the Gates website does not list a timing belt for the 2006 Toyota Tacoma 4.0 liter V6
This truck has a timing chain, not a belt. The chain will last longer than a belt and should not be replaced until it fails.
with a wrench or socket
Normally the timing chain will last the life of the engine and is replaced during a complete engine overhaul.
timing chain has too much slop and rubs side of timing case
There are marks on the chain that coordinate with marks on the timing gear. Make sure these line up when putting on the timing chain, and you should be good to go. Getting to the timing chain is the real battle.
Five hundred dollars.
it has a timing chain NEUTZ
If the truck is equipped with a V6 it will most likely have a timing belt. However if it has the 4 cylinder it will have a timing chain.
