Over time, heat-induced elastomer embrittlement causes tooth shearing, belt stretching, and timing drift. Compounding this risk, aging factory water pumps frequently suffer from bearing play and mechanical shaft seal weeping. Coolant leakage directly onto the belt drive accelerates rubber degradation, while a seized pump or roller bearing leads directly to valve-to-piston contact and total engine destruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis comprehensive replacement kit resolves critical wear points by bundling a 201-tooth high-tensile timing belt constructed from heat-stabilized HNBR elastomer with aramid tensile cords to combat stretch and shear fatigue under high RPMs. The included direct-fit water pump features a precision-cast housing, low-drag hydrodynamically balanced impeller, and high-grade ceramic mechanical seal to eliminate weeping. Matched with an OEM-grade roller tensioner bearing designed for smooth operational tracking, this assembly maintains zero-slack timing alignment and reliable thermal management across the operational band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 Timing Belt (201 teeth)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 Roller Tensioner Bearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 Water Pump with Gasket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100% style=\" border-collapse: collapse border: solid font-size: min-width:\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2008-2010 Dodge Avenger\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e3.5L SOHC V6 (EGJ) \/ JS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e235 hp \/ 232 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eTBK295L, TS26295A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2010 Dodge Avenger R\/T (3.5L V6 SOHC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExcludes 2.4L I4 World Gas and 2.7L V6 DOHC configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions \u0026amp; Fitment Warnings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the JS Avenger?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this is a direct fit for the 2008-2010 Dodge Avenger equipped with the \u003cstrong\u003eChrysler 3.5L SOHC V6 (EGJ)\u003c\/strong\u003e engine on the \u003cstrong\u003eJS\u003c\/strong\u003e chassis. \u003cstrong\u003eDoes not fit 2.4L 4-cylinder or 2.7L V6 timing-chain engines.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I need to bleed the cooling system after installing the water pump?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, thorough air-bleeding is required after installation to eliminate air pockets and prevent hot spots that can cause immediate thermal damage to the new water pump mechanical seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Dodge Performance Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered to withstand the thermal demands and high-rpm loads of Dodge's high-output V6 sedans, this kit delivers uncompromising timing precision and robust hydrodynamic cooling to keep your powertrain running safely under all driving conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67545251807480,"sku":"DS-E4TY8DIUO","price":94.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/performance-water-pump-timing-belt-kit-for-dodge-avenger-2008-2010-3-5l-1.jpg?v=1790720511","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/products\/performance-water-pump-timing-belt-kit-for-dodge-avenger-2008-2010-3-5l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
