    1988 f350 4x4 srw should have d60 right???

    Love the D50 TTB's, with a little mods like cut & turn and bushing replacement they can handle just about anything, plus with 12" of travel they really smooth things out. I always buy them up when people pull them to replace with a D60.

    94 7.3 idi turbo throwing belts?

    Thanks, looking at it now, I'm surprised it was set up the way it was, and really surprised I was able to drive the truck home with no problems. Or at all for that matter. I think this may have been a temporary fix for someone, who never fixed it correctly. So is this the added bracket on the...

    94 7.3 idi turbo throwing belts?

    Maybe I figured this out, I drove the truck about 40 miles today with no issue. Here are some pics of the bracket, I will say it was suppose to be a belt guard. This bracket was bolted behind the vacuum pump, between it and the mount, there was also a 1/16" washer between this bracket and...

    Thanks everyone for the replys. My tensioner does not have a damper on it, I wonder if that would help to get one with a damper? I did notice when revving up the engine the tensioner does move a small amount, acting like the belt tightens up with engine revs, but I am assuming that is normal.

    Interesting, I did notice my power steering pulley does move in and out about 1/16", but everything I've read says that is normal as long as it has no side to side movement, which it doesn't. Maybe I should look at replacing the power steering pump, I'm sure it's due.

    I don't think that would work on my idi, both the pulleys the tensioner and idler run on the back side of the belt, so both pulleys are smooth. Unless the belt is ran in a different way on that tensioner?
