[QUOTE="by9468840, post: 13115781, member: 146670"] Ok I don't care if you guys call me a pussy but I'm seriously scared of the tensioner. That damn thing is so strong I couldn't turn it with a rachet and 17mm socket. It's almost impossible to turn it clockwise. I gave up before forcing it further. Tried to remove the upper idler toget some belt slack but that didn't work either. Damn these roush belts are quite tense! Ok so how can I remove the tension? Use a giant breaker bar just force it clockwise? Is that thing supposed to be torqued back to some specification after pulley swap is done? Like how do I know how much I should Turn it for the right tension on the belt? Got no experience with this guys. Sorry. I hate everyone who says this is a 10min job!!:) It isn't and I'm utterly scared of Breaking something. [/QUOTE]
