Default 97 4.0 timing chain guide
Can someone please show or tell me where the timing chain guide goes in my 97 XJ 4.0? I have access to dealer connect but can't find it in there and the one in my engine is broke and laying in the bottom of the timing cover.

It fits in a slot inside the timing chain cover. The cover will have to be removed inorder to replace it.

Yes, on the inside of the cover, not on the engine itself.
