    Did you have to grind the bottom of your accessories tensioner down some where it meets the 4lb lower? Had to on mine. Not much just a lil bit.

    Excellent I'm not the only one lol. I just brought a new tensioner and forgot all about that. Went to put it in and found out. I think I should beable to do it with the file I have here. If not I'll take it to the bench at work.

    Roush Tensioner

    Here's the new Roush tensioner it comes with a 76mm pulley. I purchased a Metco 90mm double bearing smooth idler pulley to pair with the Roush.

    Here's my accessories tensioner, notice on the left the old one with the areas grinded down to clear the 4lb tensioner. I'm taking the new one to work to grind it down on the work bench. I only had a file here at home and it just wasnt getting the job done.

    It's been so long sense I changed the accessories belt, I was looking at it like you could do it with the tensioner and alternator brackets on. Nope, gotta take those guys off
