tensioner stop

if you don't have a stop already ; you should really consider the one from detroit tuned . it went on in a snap . the cost was great (cheap) ;and it's out of the way . really good piece .

The cable stop is definitely the way to go, this is my home made one...

I told you i'd snap some pics when I put the MINI crank pulley on.

Is it really necessary, or just good insurance?
Different for serious modders vs.us daily drivers?

Having a tensioner stop will keep more money in your pocket if and when your belt breaks.

I haven't had a belt break, probably because it never has a chance to get that worn, but anything can happen.

+1 $20 to save yourself 100's if the belt breaks.

I have one of Detroit Tuned's stops on mine too. One less thing to worry about & for the price it's very cheap insurance.

It's inexpensive insurance. Better yet, each one is hand made by Chad himself.

So inexpensive you should get 2 and give one to a friend, cause friends don't let friends drive their MCS Tensioner Strapless

I thought these were being made by thefuturequeenofnebraska aka thefuturemrs.agokart. Rumor has it, she is sequestered somewhere in Chad's shop working on these night & day.
