I looked in the manual and it said nothing about valve adjustment. Guessing that it is all done vial hydraulic lash adjusters??

No valve adjustment on the 4.0 SOHC. Just the hydraulic adjusters under the roller. It will probably tick like mad when you start it the first time. Just give it a second to get the top end oil pressure up.
