The tensioner assembly came flying out the bottom of my truck today. I guess we didn't have it tightened in there well enough. I think it actually got loose over time and it snapped today. Now I have to drill the fuggin stud out of the bracket. Hey, good times, all!
Has anyone replaced their tensioner? Did it come with 2 different bolt types? We had a HELL of a time trying to figure out which bolt the directions were telling us to use. They could have made it very simple but instead they explained it twice and all sorts of confusingly both times.
The tensioner doesn't have starpoint spring-loaded stuff, it just has one big bolt which we used and another bolt with a plastic retainer. From what we understood we were supposed to use the big bolt, it did fit so I don't think we went wrong there.
