Clevite SH2163 Camshaft Bearing Set Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep & Mitsubishi 1.8L, 2.0L, 2.4L Engines 2007-2012
The Clevite SH2163 Camshaft Bearing Set the leader in precision, durability, and performance for Chrysler and Mitsubishi 4-cylinder applications. Engineered for enthusiasts and professionals who refuse to settle for anything less than the absolute best, this set outperforms OEM bearings and competing aftermarket options by delivering exceptional load capacity, reduced friction, and extended service life under high-RPM demands. Ideal for 1.8L, 2.0L, and 2.4L engines in models like the Dodge Caliber, Mitsubishi Lancer, or Chrysler Sebring from 2007-2012, it ensures flawless camshaft alignment, minimal wear, and optimal oil flow for superior engine efficiency and power output in daily driving or performance builds.
Why Clevite?
When it comes to camshaft bearings, the Clevite SH2163 reigns supreme, eclipsing factory replacements and budget brands with its advanced B-1 material construction – a steel-backed design featuring tin or lead-based conventional babbitt lining (nominal 0.020-inch thickness) for unmatched conformability, embeddability, and resistance to fatigue.
Unlike standard OEM bearings that can seize under heat or load, or inferior alloys from lesser manufacturers that lack precision tolerances, Clevite's electroplated white metal surface layer provides superior corrosion protection, better heat dissipation, and up to 30% longer lifespan in high-stress environments like turbocharged setups or frequent revving.
This results in smoother cam operation, reduced vibration, and enhanced overall engine reliability – making it the top pick for rebuilds where failure is not an option.
Performance advantages shine through with precise factory-finished clearances that eliminate the need for line boring, ensuring plug-and-play installation while maintaining optimal oil pressure and minimizing dry-start damage.
Compared to competitors, the SH2163 offers better seizure resistance and higher load-bearing capacity, perfect for modified engines pushing beyond stock limits. Backed by Mahle Clevite's legacy of OE-quality engineering and rigorous testing, this set delivers unmatched value, far outlasting cheaper alternatives and preventing costly downtime.
Included:
The Clevite SH2163 Camshaft Bearing Set arrives as a complete, ready-to-install package designed for hassle-free engine assembly. Here's precisely what's included:
