Review on πŸ”© Gates 38163 DriveAlign Auto Belt Tensioner by Robert Carlson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Arrived quickly - control parts

Not sure I would buy again. Compared to the original, the center bolt hole is larger. Tensioner and will not allow you to stretch the bolt without removing the washer. This element made it possible to separately remove the bolt with the washer. This may not be a problem as the mounting bolts fit perfectly which should dampen any vibration. The pulley itself looked the same. It works, but I'll stick with the OEM if that fails.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Expensive
