Thread: Help with Power Steering pump belt tensioner

Tweet

Help, I was changing the belts on the 41 today and the power steering belt tensioner nut came off stripped, luckily i wasnt driving as the pulley would have torn stuff up if it went bouncing around.

So, if i describe it, maybe someone can tell me where and what kind it is, i will take a pic tomorrow if need be.

PS pump on drivers side, regular belts, not serpentine.

a L shaped bracket hangs off the PS pump. long slot in the long part of the L, hole for bolt on the bottom part of the L

A shaft goes through the long part of the L, the tensioner pully goes on the outside of the L, with a nut holding it to the shaft.

There is a bolt that goes up from the bottom part of the L, into a threaded hole in the shaft, tighening or loosening the bolt allows the shaft to move up and down, reducing or adding tension to the belt via the pulley.

Anybody know where i can get one? Pics needed anyone?
