Went to put a new belt on my truck, broke the belt tensioner off ( yay! )
Ford in their infinite wisdom used a T50 torx to hold it on. Broke 3 torx bits trying to get it out ( yay! )
Took the entire bracket out, was going to use a cut off wheel to cut what was left of it off and get some vice grips on the bolt. In the process, broke the entire end off of the bracket ( yay! )
Where do I get one of these damn things? I went to the not-so-local junk yard to find one. All of the same year rangers there, they were gone. Went to a couple years newer, bracket has changed a LOT ( even though it's still the 2.3 motor ). Checked ebay. No luck. Does anyone have any idea where I can get one? Other than the stealership..... I will go to the stealership if I have to, as this truck pays the bills.. But I am not so broke as I NEED to have it today, but I am getting bored sitting around all day.
