Timing Chain Kit Overview

Gates CHK114A is a timing chain component kit for select Ford and Lincoln applications. It is built around steel chain construction and silent chain design, with included guides, tensioners, and sprockets for a complete timing drive service.

Key Features

  • Silent steel timing chain design for controlled valve timing operation.
  • Includes chain guides, tensioners, and drive sprockets for a full timing drive refresh.
  • Water pump included in the kit contents.
  • Engineered to meet or exceed OE standards in function, fit, and performance.
  • Fits Ford Explorer, Ford Flex, Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and Lincoln MKT applications.

Detailed Description

This Gates timing chain component kit is intended for engines that require replacement of timing drive wear items together. The CHK114A combines steel chain construction with a silent chain profile and matching components to restore proper timing system operation. It is a practical choice for Ford Explorer, Ford Flex, Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and Lincoln MKT service work where the timing drive, sprockets, guides, and tensioners are addressed at the same time. The CHK114A part number is also useful when verifying the correct timing chain kit before teardown or reassembly.

What It Helps Address

  • Timing chain noise from worn chain or guide surfaces.
  • Incorrect cam timing caused by stretched or fatigued timing components.
  • Rattle or slack in the timing drive from aging tensioners.
  • Wear in related sprockets that can affect timing stability.
  • Cooling-system service overlap when the water pump is being replaced during timing work.

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm engine application and timing component layout before ordering. This kit is for specific Ford and Lincoln fitments only, and the CHK114A should be matched to the vehicle’s engine configuration and service requirements. Follow factory timing procedures, mark component positions carefully, and verify chain alignment during assembly.

Quality Assurance

Gates is a global supplier of timing drive systems in both original equipment and replacement markets. The CHK114A timing chain kit is built to meet or exceed OE standards in function, fit, and performance.
