Default Dyna question

I have an 05 Dyna. In 2k it will be time to chang the oil and 20k so I should inspect the timing chain tensioners. What parts do I need? A gasket for the cam cover for sure, any other parts? How about an exhaust gasket? JnP a good place. Thanks

You will need the cam cover gasket; just pick one up at the dealer. Don't know what exhaust you have but probably have to remove the pipes to remove the cam cover. A set of the HD SS exhaust gaskets would be a good idea; also pick up at the dealer.

You will need a small but good flashlight and a dental mirror to check the inner tensioner. If tensioners look good, you won't need anything else. Be prepared to catch a cup or so of oil when you open the cam chest.

FY, you should have posted this in the Engine/Fuel/Intake/Exhaust section.

If you are going to dive inside your engine take a look in the engine and Dyna sections, where there is plenty of info for inspecting tensioners. Also get yourself a factory service manual, which will answer your question about the parts you require and lead you through what to do.
