2001 Ranger 4.0L primary chain rattle

I'm just wondering if there are any other ranger owners with the 4.0L that has a primary chain rattle issue. The deal is, it shows up between 2500rpm and 3000rpm, actually stays in there to 6000rpm, but is covered up by engine noise above 3000rpm. I only have one Ford dealer near me, and I'm not terribly thrilled with them. Does anyone know how to get this issue fixed, is anyone else getting this? It sounds like

Anyway, if anyone else has this problem, and knows the fix, please let me know.

I'm not to thrilled with my local dealer either but I've had to suck it up a couple of times and go there. I'd Just go and get it fixed. You should be under factory warrenty.
