Product Details

This Cloyes timing chain guide is CAD designed and manufactured with advanced materials, then tested for function and durability to meet OEM performance requirements. It helps maintain proper timing chain path between the crankshaft and camshaft, reducing chain movement and supporting quiet operation in the valvetrain. Cloyes recommends replacing the chain tensioner, sprockets, and guides together when servicing the timing set. This part cross-references 7T4Z6K297AA for the same application.
