Continental TB298 Engine Timing Belt

Continental TB298 Engine Timing Belt

The Continental TB298 engine timing belt is built for import V6 timing systems that demand stable tooth engagement and consistent rotation. It is a direct-fit timing belt for select Lexus and Toyota applications, including Lexus SC430, GX470, GS430, LS430, LX470, and Toyota 4Runner, Sequoia, Tundra, and Land Cruiser models.

Key Features

• Curvilinear tooth profile for smooth meshing and dependable power transfer
• 211 belt teeth for the specified engine timing layout
• 1.34-inch top width and 66.46-inch belt length
• No timing marks for applications that rely on engine indexing procedures
• Built for high load-bearing capacity to reduce slippage risk
• Engineered for durability in elevated-temperature and demanding operating conditions

Product Details

Continental Import timing belts are positioned for import engine service where accurate valve timing and long-term reliability matter. The TB298 is specified for interference-engine applications across Lexus and Toyota platforms, including 2003-2009 Toyota 4Runner, 2001-2009 Toyota Sequoia, and 2003-2009 Toyota Tundra, as well as Lexus SC430 and GX470 coverage. This part number, TB298, is also cross-referenced by Bando TB298 for the same application.

With a curvilinear tooth design and the listed belt dimensions, this timing belt is intended to maintain consistent engagement with the timing drive system and help preserve proper engine synchronization. For shoppers searching for a Toyota Tundra timing belt, Lexus GX470 timing belt, or Continental TB298 replacement, this part matches the listed import fitments and timing specifications.

What It Helps Address

• Timing belt wear that can lead to loss of synchronization
• Slippage caused by reduced tooth engagement
• Noise or irregular operation from an aging timing belt
• Premature belt deterioration in high-heat engine environments
• Service interval replacement on interference-engine applications

Installation Notes

Replace the timing belt at the manufacturer-recommended service interval and inspect related drive components during service. Because this is an interference-engine application, correct timing alignment is critical during installation. Verify engine code and vehicle fitment before ordering, and confirm the TB298 against the existing belt specification on Lexus and Toyota import models.

Quality Assurance

Continental supplies engineered import drivetrain components with a focus on load capacity, durability, and consistent performance under demanding conditions. The TB298 is built to support reliable timing operation in the specified Lexus and Toyota applications.
