Timing Chain Kit INA ZC-76253 for Ford E-150 E-250 F-150 4.6L V8 2008-2014

Reliable kit for comprehensive servicing of the timing drive

The timing chain kit INA ZC-76253 is an original kit from the manufacturer INA Schaeffler, designed for replacing the elements of the timing chain drive on compatible Ford vehicles with a 4.6-liter V8 gasoline engine. The kit is developed as an OEM Replacement, meaning it meets the vehicle manufacturer's requirements for geometry, fitting dimensions, and functionality.

Timely replacement of the timing chain drive allows maintaining precise synchronization of the crankshaft and camshafts, ensuring stable engine operation, correct valve opening and closing, reduced mechanical wear, and preservation of the engine's factory characteristics.

INA is part of the Schaeffler group and is one of the world's largest manufacturers of engine components, supplying products both to the original equipment market and the quality spare parts market.

What's included in the kit

The INA ZC-76253 kit includes a complete set of main parts necessary for replacing the timing chain drive:

• main timing chains;
• camshaft sprockets;
• crankshaft sprocket;
• hydraulic chain tensioners;
• chain guides (dampers);
• sealing rings for tensioners.

The kit allows replacing the main wear elements of the system without the need to purchase most parts separately.

Advantages of the INA kit

Using quality components of the timing system directly affects the reliability of the engine and its lifespan.

Main advantages of the kit:

• manufactured by one of the leading global manufacturers of engine components;
• meets OEM requirements for dimensions and compatibility;
• ensures precise operation of the timing mechanism;
• designed for standard installation without modifications;
• high-quality processing of toothed elements;
• reliable hydraulic tensioners maintain the necessary chain tension;
• guides made from wear-resistant materials;
• complete set of main parts significantly simplifies repair;
• suitable for comprehensive engine servicing;
• designed for long-term operation with adherence to vehicle maintenance regulations.

Why it's important to replace the kit completely

During engine operation, timing chain drive elements wear out simultaneously. Installing a new chain with old guides, tensioners, or sprockets can lead to accelerated wear of new parts.

Complete replacement of the kit allows:

• restoring the correct operation of the timing drive;
• eliminating increased noise of the chain mechanism;
• ensuring stable engine operation;
• reducing the risk of timing phase disruption;
• avoiding repeated costly repairs.

Compatibility

The kit is intended for Ford vehicles with a gasoline engine 4.6L V8.

Before purchasing, it is recommended to verify the catalog number of the part with the one installed on the vehicle.

OEM Numbers

The kit corresponds to the following OEM numbers:

• 1L2Z-6L253-AA
• 1L2Z-6L253-BA
• 4R3Z-6B274-BA
• XL1Z-6L266-AA

Installation Features

Installation of the kit is recommended during major engine repair or planned replacement of timing mechanism elements.

During installation, it is recommended to:

• check the condition of the sprockets;
• check the condition of the seals;
• follow the factory timing marks;
• use the tightening torque according to the vehicle manufacturer's technical documentation.

A properly installed kit ensures stable and long-lasting operation of the timing system.
