Review on ⏱️ Cloyes C3028 Timing Set - Precision Engine Timing Solution by William Pacino

Revainrating 3 out of 5

You need a tensioner.

Let me save you the time and hassle when you are shopping for a Dodge Ram 5.2 or 5.9 Magnum timing chain replacement. Yes, that's the right part, but there's an incredible amount of latitude. I thought I had the wrong chain, so I went to Napa and bought another one. He had even more leeway than Cloyes. Then I bought the Napa brand, no dual role, aka OEM. He had a tremendous amount of backlash. I guess that slack is fine, but I couldn't consciously fit a chain with that much slack. So order the Cloyes tensioner used for the 3.9 V6 along with this chain and you will be fine. This is a common change and should have been done from the start.
