09 3.5 Rocker Arm Freeplay

Recommended Posts

I have an 09 3.5l.  I have the oh so common tick noise in the top end.  I have pulled the rear VC to inspect.  I haven't pulled the front one yet. Does anyone know if there should be any play on the rocker arms side to side?  On the rockers that aren't engaged I don't have any play up and down, but on the shaft there is some side to side play.  I have tried to search online about it, and all I can find is people saying that the tick is caused by the rockers.  I want to know if there is a spec.  On the end the shafts don't look like they have spun.  The side to side clearance on the shafts range from .034"-.050"+.  Thanks.
