If there isn't much more to it than that, I'm gonna pull the trigger on this for peace of mind. Thank you for posting this! I see you just did it last month.

like i stated, one of the torques is difficult to access and the spring in the new tensioner is stiffer making it difficult to engage the threads. it's a diy project that's relatively easy, but i still cussed at some points while doing it, nevertheless.
