Yea for the PS/AC belt. In northern WI, there aren't any decent junk yards around. Doh

if you cant find it at a junkyard you may be fored to get it from the dealer.. if so then be prepared to pay $$

I checked at Tallahasee Mitsubishi and they wanted $90 + shipping for the bolt and bracket it screws into. So I said no thanks. I might be going to a couple of recking yards today, so if I can find more then 1 I'll get you one as well. You need just the bolt right? Let me know.

just had to replace mine last week (fr the second time in like 3 months) ... those things are POS's ... if you want as new one then you have to get it rom the dealer and they wont sell the bolt by itself... a junkyard is a good idea... but then again..you might just have to keep buying them when they break... the second time mine broke the dealer paid for it..cuz it shouldn't have broke that quickly..

Hey ultimar, i think i have my old tensioner adjustment bolt when i replaced mine. If you want to wait, i could mail it to ya. I'm here in Michigan, soo... Best bet is a junkyard though, and maybe check some machining places or any specialty hardware store. Reverse thread bolts aren't that uncommon...Just tougher to find. That 90 bucks if for the whole tensioner pulley assembly, but if you can afford it, i would replace the whole thing, since these are very common to go bad..

dealers up here ( in Ohio ) want $120 for it...so $90 at Talahassee is still bettter than $120 new...
