  Crankshaft Gear, Gear Crankshaft

• Description:

  This is the genuine Ford crankshaft gear, the timing sprocket that mounts on the front of the crankshaft to drive the timing chains that synchronize the camshafts with the crankshaft. Cataloged by Ford as a crankshaft gear, it transmits crankshaft rotation to the primary timing chains so valve timing stays precisely coordinated with piston position. This part serves 11-14 F-150 and Mustang applications with the 5.0L Coyote V8 engine. Technicians look for this gear during a timing chain service or when there is a timing-related concern such as chain noise, a cam-crank correlation code, or wear found on the sprocket teeth. Because the gear drives the chains continuously under load and rides on the crankshaft nose, its teeth can wear and its keyway or fit can be affected over very high mileage or after a timing failure, which is why it is inspected and replaced during major timing work. A worn crankshaft gear can accelerate chain wear and disturb valve timing. Installing the correct genuine gear restores precise chain drive and proper timing geometry. As an original Ford component it matches the tooth profile, bore, and keying exactly so the chains track correctly and timing marks align. Confirm engine application against your vehicle before ordering, and replace the timing chains, guides, and tensioners as needed during the job for a complete, reliable repair.

• Applications: 5.0L.
