 what's up mopar fam i hope everybody's having a blessed day out there today so this is going to be part two of this ram 2500 6-4 hemi uh with the possible bad cam and lifters and it's not possible it is we definitely have a bad cam and bad lifters uh so this is where we're at right now and hey before we get started hit that thumbs up button comment down below and subscribe to the channel you can see we got a lot tore down and tore out of here it's almost down to a short block basically um definitely a big job that's for sure so we got the cam out as you can see heads are off and let's go inside and see the cam and the lifter all right so we have the timing cover right here we got the cam phaser we got the heads over here which we're going to be while we're waiting on parts we're going to get these heads cleaned up we're going to be putting new springs in new valve seals we do have a couple of broken bolts uh that bolt's broken for the exhaust manifold and this bolt's broken for the exhaust manifold pretty common issue on these as well i wouldn't doubt it if we end up having one broke on this head but we'll see so here's all the lifters from the driver's side and all of those were good except for one and all the lifters from the passenger side right here every single one of those were good as we kind of expected and over here we have the cam so our misfire was obviously because of the lifter and this cam lobe was wore down right here and this is not the worst i've ever seen this is very very minor honestly um probably the best one i've seen you know it doesn't look good but he caught it pretty soon so that's the bad cam lobe and that's what it should look like those are good ones right there so you can see where it started eating it up where it's real sharp on the edges and then here's our lifter that failed and this was actually a non mds lifter that failed it's not always the mds lifters that go bad um that's kind of a kind of a myth and a theory that everyone thinks it it's either one or the other so can't always blame the mds you know oil change life uh idle hours you know overall use you know has a lot to do with why this happens but you know definitely sucks they shouldn't be happening but they are but that's the bad lifter you can see how flat the top is um it just started to wear in to what i call the fork um so he caught this pretty quick and you can see here's all the play in that bearing lots and up and down play we turn it sideways here see that so this is where all your ticking and rattle is coming from when they go out and again this guy did a good job he caught this pretty soon because it just it just barely started to wear into the fork on the lifter and when they start to wear into that fork on the lifter is when they really start to eat up the cam lobes so that's why it's important you know if you start to hear this you need to shut it down and you need to fix it if you keep driving on it you can definitely count yourself in for a new motor instead of a repair job so there you go guys that's where we're at uh part two on this 64 hemi cam and lifter job um so stay tuned again we're going to be upgrading this we're going to do a hellfire 2.0 frp cam it'll be an mds delete custom tuning everything um it's going to be a good cam it's going to fix the problem it's going to add some power and some towing torque for sure don't forget give the video a thumbs up comment down below what you think and we'll see you guys on the next one
