Does anyone know a source for OEM or OEM spec guides NCA2025AB for the earlier roller chains (1st pic) versus the later silent running chains (2nd pic)? I've ordered from autohausAZ and FCPEuro as they picture the correct part on their websites, but what I get are guides for the later chains. The OEM part from Jag is $125 each (special order from SNG ) which I'd like to avoid. Thanks.

Ford/Lincoln 3.9 liter guides for the early engines (2000MY) are the same.

I searched the websites until I found them and bought several sets because I anticipated the NLA status of these parts someday.

That link is the first supplier I tried - correct part pictured but no longer supplied - Eurospare is apparently only supplying the later guides. I'll try the Ford route. Thanks.

 

Does this look like the correct Ford part? Thanks again.

Saw that - they picture the correct Eurospare part but experience tells me they'll supply the later guides. Will see if I can get through to a human being to confirm (wish me luck). Thanks again.

 

I ended up ordering the above PN from a Ford dealer - $40 each. Very few of these OEM guides left in stock in the US - that "NLA status of these parts someday" is here. Thanks again.
