Received my manual tensioner from a GB on LR.
Frikin lush piece.
I have a spare FEAD drive. The tensioner didn't fit tut tut.
So out came the hacksaw & grinder. Pair of lipped pulleys to finish it off.
Gonna have to slight shim the cog pulley. Also the mounting bolt sits under the adjuster arm so I need to polish the bolt head a little.

Got the truck 90% finished. Just need to retorque the studs. Have a slight leak at the collector grrrrrr should have used to exhaust paste.
Anyhow. My homemade drill guide and Crap-On Extractor.
That was the easy part. Should have seen the ordeal getting that freaking dip stick tube out!!
Next up is a Gates 8MGT cog belt and she's then gonna whistle.
