They have just come out with new tensioner for the 5.0 cars. It has a screw that pushes down on the tensioner, no more pry bars. Cost roughly about $95.00.

Yeah it's a little expensive but it would be worth it in my opinion not to have to hassel with holding a pry bar and tighenting the bolts on the bracket.
Beside my bracket is all chewed up and looks like **** from using the pry bar.

Look on corral about this, huge post about it. One guy tells you how to make your own for under $5. I'm going to make one just as soon as I have a chance.

It would be alot cheaper to fabricate it than to buy it. It's really a no brainer piece.

It looks easy enough to make. 95 bucks is a bit high. Should be more like 49.95.:D

It does look easy enough to make, I'll check the corral and see what's being said over there. $5 sure beats$95.
