Overview

Fitment notice:

CP203 fits select Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep Pentastar applications. Use the vehicle selector or open the Vehicle Fitments section to check compatibility before ordering. Confirm the OE part numbers before ordering.

Not compatible with these 3.6L applications
  • 2016–2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango
  • 2017–2020 Chrysler Pacifica
  • 2020 Chrysler Voyager
  • 2018–2020 Jeep Wrangler JL, including Wrangler Unlimited JL
  • 2020 Jeep Gladiator
Quick check:

If your factory rocker arms are held to the lifters by a metal retaining clip, your engine uses the revised valvetrain and CP203 will not fit.

2018 Wrangler owners:

Both JK and JL generations were sold for 2018. For Wrangler applications, this kit fits 2012–2018 Wrangler JK and Wrangler Unlimited JK models with the 3.6L engine only. Confirm your generation before ordering.

Retaining clips:

Retaining clips are not included and are not sold separately.

A ticking Pentastar is trying to tell you something. On the 3.2L and 3.6L Pentastar V6, the roller bearings inside the factory rocker arms are one of the engine's best-known weak points.

When a roller wears or seizes, it doesn't just get noisy — it grinds directly against the camshaft lobe, turning an affordable rocker arm replacement into a full camshaft job. Replacing worn rocker arms promptly is the single best way to protect your cams.

The XOTIC PERFORMANCE™ CP203 kit is designed to replace worn rocker arms and lash adjusters in compatible Pentastar engines. Each rocker is precision-manufactured to factory specifications with a free-spinning needle-bearing roller and hardened contact surfaces to support reliable valvetrain operation across the RPM range.

Why choose our rocker arms:
  • Helps address ticking caused by worn rocker-arm roller bearings — ticking can have multiple causes; confirm the diagnosis before replacement.
  • Built for durability — precision-machined rocker bodies with smooth-rolling needle bearings deliver consistent valvetrain operation under daily driving and towing loads
  • Interchange #s: 5184296AH, 5184296 AH, 5184332AA, 5184332 AA, 5184296AE, 5184296AF, 7B0109441B.
