Product Description
24X Solid Billet Crankshaft Reluctor Wheel for GM LS Engines
One-Piece Billet Steel 24X Reluctor Wheel | Designed for GM LS 24X Crankshaft Signal Applications
Replace a factory-style 24X crankshaft reluctor wheel with a solid billet steel solution built for GM LS applications requiring a 24X crank signal. This custom one-piece reluctor wheel is machined from a solid block of billet steel and is designed for engine builders, LS swaps, high-performance rebuilds, and custom combinations requiring a GM LS-style 24X reluctor wheel. Its rigid billet construction is intended to address concerns associated with stock 24X reluctor wheel runout, helping support consistent crankshaft position signal operation in properly matched engine-management combinations.
Key Features & Benefits
- Solid One-Piece Billet Construction: Machined from a solid block of billet steel rather than using a factory-style stamped reluctor wheel construction.
- Designed for GM LS 24X Signal Applications: Built for engine combinations requiring a GM LS-style 24X crankshaft reluctor wheel and the corresponding 24X crankshaft position signal configuration.
- Addresses Factory Wheel Runout Concerns: Stock 24X reluctor wheels can develop structural issues that allow the wheel to lose straightness. Excessive runout can contribute to crankshaft signal concerns, misfires, and engine-operation problems.
- Ideal for LS Rebuilds and Performance Builds: A practical upgrade during a short-block rebuild, crankshaft replacement, forged rotating assembly installation, or custom LS engine build where the crankshaft is already removed.
- Engine Builder-Focused Component: Commonly selected for serious LS engine combinations where crankshaft signal consistency and reluctor wheel integrity are important considerations.
Specs

- Material: Solid billet steel
- Construction: One-piece billet design
- Application Type: GM LS-style 24X crankshaft signal applications
Notes
- 24X vs. 58X Verification Required: Confirm your engine, crankshaft position sensor, ECM, and wiring configuration require a 24X reluctor wheel before purchase. A 24X and 58X reluctor wheel are not interchangeable without the appropriate supporting components.
- Crankshaft Sensor Identification: 24X reluctor wheel applications use a black crankshaft position sensor, while 58X applications use a gray sensor. The sensor is located at the rear of the block near the oil pan on the passenger side, just above the starter.
- Professional Installation Recommended: Reluctor wheel installation requires engine disassembly and proper crankshaft assembly procedures. Verify reluctor position, crankshaft sensor compatibility, and ECU calibration requirements before final assembly.
- Engine Management Compatibility: Confirm the crankshaft reluctor count matches the intended ECM, harness, crank sensor, and engine-management configuration before ordering.
Key Fitments
- 24X Reluctor wheels were primary used on 1997 thru 2005, and some 2006 engines.
