Fan Belt Tension Adjuster....
Hello to ALL....
I have a '36 Ford pickup with an alternator and wanted to replace the Fan Belt with new. I utilized a 7/8" x 1 1/4" long Coupling Nut (with 1/2-13 NC internal thread) and a 1/2-13 NC x 1 1/4" long Hex Head Bolt. I used round cardboard cut-outs under the Coupling Nut and above the Hex Head Bolt to make sure I did not scratch the paint on the intake manifold and bottom of the Alternator. Slowly turning the Hex Head Bolt counter-clockwise put tension on the Fan Belt. Worked perfect so I wanted to share and hope it may help someone else out there. Just curious as to what others out there do for Fan Belt tensioning. Bruce in Ca. Last edited by 1936 ford pickup; 10-19-2020 at 12:40 PM. |
