Gates 82-88 Chrysler Lebaron 4-Cyl. 2.2L Timing Belt Component Kit

Gates is a well-known name for reliable engine components, and their timing belt kits are a popular choice for keeping your engine running smoothly. This TCK071 kit is designed for a range of vehicles from the early 80s to late 80s, including models like the Chrysler LeBaron, Dodge Aries, and Plymouth Horizon, all equipped with the 2.2L 4-cylinder engine.

A timing belt is critical for synchronizing your engine's crankshaft and camshaft, ensuring the valves open and close at the right time. When it's time to replace your timing belt, it's often best to replace the related components too, like the tensioner and idler pulley, to ensure everything works together properly and to avoid having to do the job twice. This kit includes those essential parts to give you a complete solution for your timing belt service.

Replacing your timing belt and associated components is a significant maintenance item. It's a good idea to refer to your vehicle's service manual for the specific procedure, as it often involves removing other engine parts to gain access. Having all the necessary components in one box, like this kit from Gates, makes the job more straightforward.
