[QUOTE="einehund, post: 15847794, member: 67302"] I didn't have time to run a thread chaser, but I looked and there aren't really any threads to chase. I'm going to have to helicoil it, which I've never done before, so I guess it is time to learn. I bought the tensioner used, and asked about the center bolt. The response I got was that the stock bolt would work. Due to the vastly different thicknesses of the tensioners, I looked at it, and debated on whether or not to proceed with using the stock bolt. I decided to go for it, which ended up being the wrong choice. If anyone is wondering, the bolt that you need is an M10x80mm. Not sure of the thread pitch. I am going to just buy a fine thread and coarse thread bolt and figure out which works better with the helicoil. [/QUOTE]
