Resolved 1G A/C Belt Tensioner Pulley

[boosted_91_tsi]

I was in the process of replacing the timing belt tensioner when I came across this....the tensioner assembly for the A/C belt. I have searched the forums and can not find any info on if i can just replace the bolt or should I replace the whole thing. The frame of it seems to be fine so I am hoping to just be able to rebuild off of that. My searches on here just turn up TB tensioner and alt tension info. If anyone has a part number or even the proper name for this piece it would be very helpful. Thanks, Dan

well, thats life on the East coast for ya!

any way that is the AC tensioner. and it looks like you will be buying the bolt and pulley.
you local dealer should be able to find it no problem. Im thinking that they will have to order it from the PDC in Atlanta. probably a couple of days wait!

Well $3.40 for a bolt but they want around $110.00 for the pulley alone. Mine seems to be just fine now. Repainted some parts and waiting for the rest to arrive.
