Pretty much what the title is... 96 inline 6 f150, thought that little cube was lined up with the hole when I started tightening the bolt down on the pulley... well it wasn't and that whole side snapped apart... what are my options besides getting a whole new bracket and wasting another weekend on this truck.? The only part that broke was that hole that lines up with that cube on the pulley, the threads for the bolt are fine.

 

Can you take a picture of what broke?

 

Yeah here ya go, you can see the big chunk missing....

 

I'm pretty sure that's where the tensioner indexes into for it to actually work, otherwise it would just spin on the bolt.

You can try seeing if it will work, but you'll likely be replacing the whole bracket.

 

Looks like it's holding, the belt may be a little loose but it'll last until I have time to fix it... just have to monitor it. Thanks lead head!
