So my question is about the condition of the cam bearings. This is my wife’s 17 suburban 5.3 and it’s got 150k and I had a lifter go out so I’m deleting the DOD. This doesn’t look good to me. It’s smooth to the touch but looks rough. I’m not sure if I should just send it, try and replace the bearing while it’s in the vehicle or pull the motor? Any advice?
