I spent the last 5 hours putting a new timing belt on my R/T. I get everything installed, tensioned and I go to put the serpantine belt on and the stupid bolt holding the belt tensioner to the bracket stripped. So I had to remove everything just to get the tensioner bracket off. I'm beyond pissed right now... :mad:

That brings back a lot of terrible memories of installing the adjustable TIII cam sprockets. You have to remove the motor mount bracket which means tearing everything apart and supporting the engine on a jack just to slide the intake cam gear off! Uffda.

I think I fixed it. Heading out to see if it works. Pics and vid of a Spirit R/T on fire to come. Haha

:banghead:

Got everything back together and now the serpentine belt shrunk somehow.
