I put about 5k miles on my fresh rebuild this summer that has this tensioner. I can not say enough good things about it, it works great. While at at a cruise with a bunch of fellow Fieros, we all got ready to leave to head out and just about all the cars were squealing because it was very humid that morning. Not a single peep out of my ride.

Ordered a tensioner on Saturday night and Dodgerunner shipped it out Sunday. Then he followed up to see if I had received it. Great customer service.Since it was a Christmas present, I have to wait until Christmas Day before I really get it!

Great person to deal with. Thanks!

Just received my kit from Dodgerunner...A pleasure to deal with such a great supporter of our cars!
I messaged him on Friday and got my kit yesterday evening. Seamless transaction and I can't wait to install this and do away with the squeal forever!

Are you still making these?

Does the tensioner itself require any modification? I was going to place a Rock Auto order, and if it's plug-and-play I can just add one to the order.

Dodgerunner's site is down.

I bought his bracket a while ago but finally got the belt and tensioner. Would like to do the install but can't read the instructions since his site is down.

Anyone happen to save the instructions and could forward them to me?

Thank you! I hope it's just an internet thing and he isn't out of the business of selling these.

Got the job done today.

Took me about two hours although I'm fairly slow and of course I dropped one of the mount bolts down beside the mount and couldn't find the washer and had to find a replacement.

The product is a high quality product by dodgerunner. Fit perfectly. My only observation was the pass through hole to tighten the lower mount bolt was pretty useless to me. I had a 3" bar that was slightly too short and a longer bar 6" that was too long to get a ratchet on the end without removing the brake lines. It was slightly off as far as meeting up with the bolt hole and I was worried about stripping the bolt by using that even if I picked up a 4" bar, so I just used an 18 mm wrench to tighten the lower mount bolt.

Thanks again to PK for emailing me the instructions since dodgerunner's site has been down for at least the last week.

Mine is still working great after 6 years or so and I've recommended it to a few people recently.

I just got mine installed on my '87 GT. It took me about 50 minutes. I could do it in 30 --now that I've done one😆

This is a great solution and gives the car a modern update with the constant tensioner.

I can't recommend this bracket enough.

I put a Dodgerunners idler setup on my '87 GT soon after buying it in 2019. i have never been disappointed with it. In fact, I put one on every factory Fiero I tag , insure, and drive. I keep one in the box, just for ...possible future purchases.
