Cloyes 9-5598 Engine Timing Chain Tensioner - Right

Cloyes Timing Chain Tensioner 9-5598

Cloyes 9-5598 is an engine timing chain tensioner built for specific Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram applications. It uses a hydraulic/spring chain design with a nylon shoe and activation pin to maintain proper chain tension in the valvetrain.

Key Features

• Engine timing chain tensioner for specific fitment applications
• Hydraulic/spring chain type for controlled chain tension
• Nylon shoe included for chain contact support
• Activation pin design
• Black finish with specific-fit mounting dimensions
• Spring included; manually adjustable and adjustable: no
• CAD designed and manufactured with advanced materials
• Extensively tested for function and durability

Product Details

This Cloyes timing chain tensioner is engineered to meet or exceed OEM performance requirements and is designed for quiet, maintenance-free operation. The 9-5598 part number is used across a wide range of late-model and earlier Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram engines, including Ram 1500, Dodge Charger, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and Chrysler 300 applications. Cloyes recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together when servicing the timing chain system to keep chain tension consistent and restore proper valvetrain operation. This part cross-references Mopar 53022115AH for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Timing chain slack
• Chain noise from worn tensioning components
• Inconsistent chain tension in hydraulic/spring systems
• Wear in the timing chain guide and tensioner contact area
• Service needs during timing chain replacement on Ram, Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler engines

Installation Notes

Verify application by year, make, model, and engine configuration before installation. This is a specific-fit timing chain tensioner, not a universal part. Inspect the chain, guides, and sprockets during service, and replace related timing components as needed to maintain proper chain alignment and tension. Confirm mounting hole size and activation style match the original design before assembly.

Quality Assurance

Cloyes designs and manufactures timing components using CAD-based engineering and advanced materials, then tests each part for function and durability. The 9-5598 timing chain tensioner is built to meet or exceed OEM performance requirements for the listed applications.
