tensioner arm stud diameter

[car46999]

Can someone please measure with dial calipers the timing belt tensioner arm stud diameter on a 6bolt. It is part of the mount that the tensioner arm rotates on. I need to verify which part is worn. The arm or the stud. Also anyone know if they sell just they bushing (I assume not).
Thanks

Well, the diameter of the tensioner stud is exactly 1/4in. Although that is not the part that wears down. It would get shorter, and it needs to be at least .74in tall. If not, then you need a new one. There is no bushing you can install.

I just realized that you were talking about the tensioner arm, not the hydraulic tensioner. I just put this back on. I think it's a safe bet that the bushing is worn out, in which case it is probably easiest if you just buy a new tensioner arm.

Yea, I assume it is the bushing. Kinda wanted to measure it to verify. Before buying.
