They should implement a Thanks system on this forum, it would be so much easier to spot the guys that help eachother out rather than the trolls that are here just to cause problems (not that their are any in this thread)

Like I said, I'll upload it in a few. The images are quite big, so it takes a few minutes to upload to my server

I've been looking all day for a Thumpr tensioner, the only one I can find is a 3v only application from steeda, no?

If you can recomend a sturdy one, I'll go with that, but I can't find one that looks any sturdier than the one on there

EDIT: Nevermind, found it, apparently it's Thump RRR racing products tensioner. Doesn't look all that much better than the stock one, but it is billit, which is nice, but $365 DAYUMM. Guess I'll start saving now

I still haven't gotten the stang back, so I'm holding off on the PM.

This **** is really pissing me off. I really wish I could tell them to f*ck off so I can do the work myself, but jeez, it's getting old. My car's literally been there all week for a belt, it was only there two days to replace the AC compressor.

Well, as of this morning I had had enough, demanded the car back, and finished the job in an hour and a half in my apartments parking lot, with a total of 3 wrenches. SO glad I paid them a **** ton more than they were worth.

I sent out a couple PM's.

I'm still having a tiny little bit of belt slip, and I don't know where the f*ck it's coming from. The belt is the K061098, the smallest one I could fit on there myself, and it's running a brand new stock tensioner with a 76mm idler pulley.

Before the AC went out, the belt wasn't slipping whatsoever, so idk what has caused this.

Check to make shure they put our car back together right after getting a new compressor. Maybe there is something loose or not lined up.
