Cloyes 9-5235 Engine Timing Chain Tensioner - Lower

Cloyes 9-5235 Timing Chain Tensioner

The Cloyes 9-5235 timing chain tensioner is an engine timing chain tensioner built for specific Nissan applications. It uses a hydraulic/spring design with an activation pin and cast construction to maintain proper chain tension in lower timing drive systems.

Compatible with select Nissan Frontier, Xterra, Altima, 240SX, and Pickup models, this timing chain tensioner is engineered for direct-fit service where OE-style chain control is required. Cloyes timing chain tensioners are CAD designed and manufactured with advanced materials, then tested for function and durability to support consistent timing system operation.

Key Features

• Part number 9-5235 timing chain tensioner for specific Nissan engines
• Hydraulic/spring chain type with activation pin
• Cast body construction in gray finish
• Specific fit design for lower timing chain applications
• Two mounting holes; no bolts, shoe, or manual adjustment
• Built to meet or exceed OEM performance requirements

Product Details

Cloyes timing chain tensioner 9-5235 is designed to maintain correct timing chain tension in lower engine timing systems. The hydraulic/spring operating style helps control chain slack as engine conditions change, while the cast housing supports durable service in demanding valve train environments. This part cross-references Dayco 95235 for the same application.

For Nissan Frontier timing chain tensioner replacement, Nissan Xterra lower timing chain service, or Nissan Altima timing chain tensioner repair, this component provides a direct-fit solution for the listed applications. Cloyes recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together when servicing the timing chain system.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Timing chain slack in lower engine timing systems
• Rattling or noise from a worn chain tensioner
• Inconsistent chain control during engine operation
• Timing system wear caused by an aging tensioner assembly
• Service needs during timing chain replacement on select Nissan models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine code and application details before installation, since fitment is specific. Inspect the timing chain, guides, and sprockets for wear during service, and replace related components as needed to restore proper chain control. Follow factory service procedures for timing alignment and tensioner activation.

Quality Assurance

Cloyes designs and manufactures timing components using CAD-based engineering and advanced materials, then tests each part for function and durability. The 9-5235 timing chain tensioner is built to meet or exceed OEM performance requirements for the listed Nissan applications.
