Gates 87-00 Dodge Caravan V-6 3.0L Cam. Tensioner Assy. Timing Belt Tensioner

This timing belt tensioner assembly from Gates is built with a robust spring mechanism designed to maintain the correct tension on your timing belt.

When you're replacing your timing belt, it's always a good idea to replace the tensioner and idler pulleys at the same time. These components work together to keep the belt running true, and a worn tensioner can lead to premature belt failure. Gates is a well-known name in belts and related components, and this tensioner assembly is made to meet the original equipment specifications for the vehicles it fits. This means you can expect it to install correctly and perform as intended, keeping your engine running reliably for miles to come.
