Product Details

Cloyes 9-5503 is part of the Cloyes Timing Chain Guide line, a product line focused on replacement timing components built to OEM-level performance requirements. Cloyes uses CAD-based design and advanced materials, then tests each part for function and durability to help maintain accurate chain routing and stable timing system operation. This timing chain guide is a direct-fit style component for upper and N/A positions listed in the application data, including Nissan Frontier, Nissan NV350 Urvan, Suzuki Equator, Nissan Altima, Nissan Sentra, and Nissan X-Trail applications. If you are replacing a worn timing guide during a timing service, the 9-5503 helps restore proper chain alignment in the timing system.

This part cross-references 95503 and 130858J010 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Timing chain noise from a worn guide surface
• Chain misalignment in the timing system
• Excessive wear on timing components
• Inconsistent chain tracking between crankshaft and camshaft
• Service issues during timing chain replacement on Nissan Frontier, Nissan Altima, and Nissan Sentra engines

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace the timing chain guide during timing service when the chain shows wear or when the guide surface is damaged. Cloyes recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together when the chain is replaced, since these parts work together to keep the chain tight and properly supported. Verify application details by year, model, and position before installation.
