The transfer case has a linkbelt chain (here's a picture of one like it) http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/details/QQDodgeQQRam_2500QQCloyesQQTransfer_CaseQQ19941998QQCT10025.html
The camshaft is driven by the crankshaft, via chain, usually, or, gears.
there is no timing belt on a 318cu it has gears and a chain for timimg
All timing gears. You have to disassemble the entire front of the truck and engine to access.
Cam gears are also refered to as sprockets (just another name). A chain or belt that is driven by a crankshaft gear/sprocket turns the cam gear(s)/sprocket(s). In certain high performance applications there is no chain, there are just gears meshing but that is probably not relevant to your question.
A bike chain works by connecting the pedals to the rear wheel through a series of gears and sprockets. When you pedal, the chain moves along the gears, transferring the power from your legs to the wheels, causing the bike to move forward.
Vague question, isn't clear if this is about a problem, or if this is about how a chain works. Basically what the chain does is to transfer force from the pedals to the rear(drive) wheel, thereby making the bicycle move. If you have external gears, then a gear change means that the gear has to move from one sprocket to another. If you have internal gears then the chain stays, and cogwheel inside the hub moves.
The chain and gears of a bike are responsible for reducing friction as they transfer power from the pedals to the wheels with minimal energy loss. Additionally, using lubricants on the chain and gears can further reduce friction and improve overall efficiency.
It has a chain and gears. NO BELT. There would be no reason to fool with the timing chain and gears on that year engine. The chain and gears would out last the engine.
Many things can cause transfer case grinding; shift forks, broken gears, bad bearings, anything really considering a transfer case is made up primarily of gears, sprockets, chain, and bearings. Hope this helps! T-RAV
All 2003 Ram gasoline engines have timing chains. The diesel has timing gears.
http:/www.tciauto.comTCI has drive gears, driven gears & calculators.
Full size 1994 Dodge Van does not have a timing belt, but instead has a timing chain and gears on front of engine behind water pump.
