Darn new I should have looked around more. Got mine at Rock Auto for.just over $80 with a 5% discount code. Got the idler pulley too, figured I'd freshen it too while I'm there..
Paul has over 25000 miles on his Gates....of course he drives like a little old lady.. LOL
You cannot really see the bushings by looking right down at it. You have to jack up your car, take off the passenger wheel, and remove the front part "1/2" of inner fender liner.
Then you can fold it back so you can use a LED flashlight and look up for the little "Shock like" part on the tensioner. It is black about 4- 6 inches long. It is in a hard to see location, it is kind of below and behind the tensioner spring.
You need to look at the bushings on both ends were it connects. My front one completely broke and fell out and the "little shock" was rattleing against the post making the metal to metal sound. :frown2:
