AISIN Engine Timing Belt Tensioner Hydraulic Assembly P/N:BTC-500
Keep the timing belt properly tensioned and quiet with the AISIN Engine Timing Belt Tensioner Hydraulic Assembly (BTC001). It uses hydraulic pressure to deliver belt tension automatically, adjusting throughout the RPM range so the timing belt stays under controlled load. This is a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2002 Chrysler 300M [V6-3.5L], 1993-2002 Chrysler Concorde [V6-3.2L, V6-3.5L], 1994-1997 and 2000-2001 Chrysler LHS [V6-3.5L], 1994-1996 Chrysler New Yorker [V6-3.5L], 2001-2002 Chrysler Prowler [V6-3.5L], 1993-2002 Dodge Intrepid [V6-3.2L, V6-3.5L], 1993-1997 Eagle Vision [V6-3.5L], and 1997 and 1999-2001 Plymouth Prowler [V6-3.5L].
