Ready to go....
Clear!
And done!
Awesome kit 
The install of your bracket was incredibly easy, if I hadn't been messing around with other things as well It would have been done in no time. I had an easy way to install the Gates tensioner as well, worked great.
I just started the bolt in the center of the tensioner, then put a small allen behind it and used a screwdriver to rotate the base into place, and push the pin into location:

UPDATE NOTE 11-1-2009-- Made another update to the bracket so that the above should no longer be required. You should be able to bolt the Gates or any brand tensioner on without any interferance with the pulleys. (at least with known tensioners I've tested)

Xanth, great glad all went well. That's a good idea for doing those Gates tensioners.
(Note: Xanth purchase his own tensioner and belt. The gates tensioner is a little different than the one I sell in my kit. )
Bet doing it on a lift was nice also. The wife gave me a coupon (read that permission) to purchase a two post lift for Christmas.
Have a place in the garage for it just need to find a good deal on one...[This message has been edited by Dodgerunner (edited 02-09-2010).]

Having a lift is great, I actually installed the belt from underneath as well, found it to be easier than doing it from above.

I heard a car in our work parking lot start up yesterday and the belt was squealing like mad.
I thought "gee, is that what I used to sound like?".
It cut out the belt squeal and slipping altogether.

Bump for the weekend.
Rainy weather is coming, fixing that squealing belt sounds so sweet!
