Easy replacement of engine parts

Used as a replacement for original equipment, easy to install. No problem, my application is a 2001 Ford F-150 Supercrew Lariat 5.4 V8 Triton 2V.

Pros
  • Patented anti-vibration system increases the life of the tensioner, belt and accessories for long service life
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy installation, quieter operation

Tightened the bolts and muffled the annoying squeak, which was very annoying. The belt no longer slips, which greatly increases response.

Pros
  • Engines and engine parts
Cons
  • Small things

Worked great in timing parts

I was having a severe under hood squeak and this fixed it. Good quality. Update: The bearing on this pulley started squeaking after three months. It appears that the plastic bearing housing is not fully sealed and there is a gap around it.

Pros
  • timing parts
Cons
  • Hard to tell
