Bought this for my '04 Ranger which I traded over a year ago.

I had this on the truck for about an hour. During that time I heard a low squeal. Thinking this one was defective, I ordered another (from RA). The low squeal turned out to be from something else. Essentially brand new.

Fits:
1998-2011 Ranger, Sport Trac, Explorer & Mountaineer with 4.0 V6
2006-10 Explorer & Mountaineer with 4.6 V8

You should double check me on this though.

Free to anyone who is willing to pay the shipping. My wife's business has a UPS business account (UPS Ground is cheapest and business accounts get better rates). Might fit in a USPS Flat Rate Box (but I don't get to the PO that often). Your choice.

Boxed up and ready to go. I accept PayPal.

My truck is at about 125K... or will be by spring.

I was considering changing both the belt and tensioner as maintenance this spring. If that is an actual Motorcraft part... I will take it.

Depending on where you're at... we might even be able to arrange an in person pick up... I could even buy lunch?

Hey UG,
It is a Motorcraft part. Not sure if you remember but I bought a set of wheels & tires from you for my '04 Ranger (which is now in New Mexico). I'm right along the route you used to take to work; Elk Grove - Biesterfield Exit off of the I-290 extension. Lunch would be great but isn't necessary. 😉 If you want it, I'll consider it yours and you can come see me when it's convenient or the weather is nicer (or both). LMK.

Ya know... I didn't put that together that you were the one that bought the wheels and tires from me. Let me see what next week looks like and I will let you know. I don't live in Plano any longer and I sold my pizzeria... but I still do some maintenance there. I will PM you and let you know... thanks and glad to see you found another Ranger.

I recall the pizzeria was sold when I get the wheels/tires from you. I just found it ironic that you travelled right by my house on the way to Rolling Meadows each day.

Keep me posted on your schedule. At the very least I can wait for you by the curb and hand it to you as you drive by..... :D

Oh man...

I forgot all about this. Yes I sold the pizzeria and I've been mostly laid up all year.

If someone else needs this part... let them have it.

Again... sorry I left you hanging.

No worries. It's time to clean off the work bench and the the tensioner is just sitting there. Either someone wants it or it's getting recycled.
