Detailed Product Information

The Pioneer Cables PE-114-R expansion plug kit is part of Pioneer’s engine sealing program for rebuilders and repair shops. This steel version uses fine-grained, cold-rolled steel with zinc plating to help resist corrosion in engine block applications. It is a practical choice for restoring sealing integrity in older Chrysler and Dodge engines where the original plugs have rusted, leaked, or deteriorated over time. The PE-114-R is listed for vehicles such as the 1959-1978 Chrysler New Yorker, 1959-1975 Chrysler Imperial, 1959-1971 Chrysler 300, 1959-1977 Chrysler Town & Country, 1967-1969 Dodge Dart, and 1961 Dodge Lancer.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Coolant leaks from worn or rusted engine block expansion plugs
• Corrosion-related sealing failure during engine rebuilds
• Replacement needs for aging Chrysler and Dodge cylinder block plugs
• Service issues caused by damaged or missing freeze plugs
• Restoration work on classic Mopar engines

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the engine block plug diameter and application before installation. Clean the bore thoroughly, remove rust and old sealant, and inspect the block for pitting or damage that could affect sealing. Use proper installation tools and follow the engine builder’s procedure for plug seating depth and sealant selection.

Quality Assurance

Pioneer offers expansion plugs in multiple materials for different engine service needs, and this PE-114-R steel plug kit follows that program with zinc-plated corrosion resistance for rebuild applications.
