Maintaining proper engine timing is vital for smooth vehicle operation, and the tensioner plays an essential role in this system. This part keeps the timing chain tight, preventing it from slipping or jumping teeth, which could cause engine damage. Positioned on the left side of the engine, it ensures the timing chain remains properly aligned and functional. Without a reliable tensioner, the engine's performance and longevity could be compromised.
The tensioner (left) with code USEP-53021250AA is designed specifically for vehicles equipped with a 3.7L V6 engine. It serves as the left secondary timing chain tensioner and is made of metal, using existing hardware for installation. This part fits Dodge models such as Nitro, Dakota, Raider, and Durango, as well as Ram 1500 trucks. Only one unit is required for proper function in these vehicles.
