I have my head off my 4.0 to replace a snapped exhaust manifold bolt and in the process I bent a pushrod. Long story short this engine has always had a lifter tick that was very bad at startup and got quieter once the oil pressure went up after startup. I have to replace the pushrods but have heard it is not a good idea to only replace the lifters without doing the cam as well, is this ture? Could I run into cam problems installing new lifters on a old cam that is still in perfect condition? The engine only has around 130,000 miles on it and appears to be in awesome shape. Let me know.
