Detailed Product Overview

Cloyes 9-0720SA is an engine timing chain kit for front-engine applications in the Infiniti I35, Infiniti G35, Infiniti FX35, Infiniti M35, Nissan Maxima, Nissan 350Z, and Nissan Murano. This kit is built for specific vehicle coverage and uses inverted-tooth chain construction on both the primary and secondary timing drives. The design supports accurate valve timing and consistent timing system operation in engines that require a direct replacement timing solution. If you are sourcing a Cloyes 9-0720SA timing chain kit for a Nissan 350Z or Infiniti G35, verify the engine configuration and note that this application does not include the Variable Valve Timing (VVT) sprocket.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Timing chain stretch that can affect cam timing accuracy
• Noise from worn timing components in the front of the engine
• Timing system wear that can lead to drivability concerns
• Restoration of proper chain tracking and tension control
• Replacement needs during timing service on select Infiniti and Nissan V6 engines

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm engine code, model year, and front timing cover configuration before installation. This kit is specific fit and should be matched to the exact application listed for the Infiniti I35, Infiniti G35, Infiniti FX35, Infiniti M35, Nissan Maxima, Nissan 350Z, and Nissan Murano. The listed fitment does not include the Variable Valve Timing (VVT) sprocket, so reuse or separate sourcing may be required depending on the engine build. Follow factory timing marks and service procedures during installation.
