The Dayco automatic belt tensioner features Dayco’s original, patented flat spring design to provide less operating range variation. It reduces the risk of premature accessory bearing failure due to high tension and lessens the risk of belt noise and slippage – or poor performance caused by low tension. A PTFE string wound within the spring resists abrasion and dampens noise. Dayco’s tensioner is also designed with a heavy-duty cast aluminum spring case and arm, which helps resist cracking and fatigue and offers additional strength, lessening the risk of distortion. Additional premium thermoplastic rubber spring slot plugs and rubber O-ring seals help keep contaminants out and zinc coated mounting bolts resist rust.

Product Features:

• Endures the toughest conditions while promoting quieter performance and longer life
• Features a steel pivot tube on specific designs for enhanced stability
• Built to outperform and outlast competitive OE parts

Litens was an Original Equipment (O.E.) supplier of this part and offers this “O.E. Exact”* part for the aftermarket. This tensioner was also supplied to Chrysler by an alternate manufacturer who’s tensioner looks different from the Litens original or aftermarket part. The Litens product meets all original equipment form, fit, and function specifications. O.E. Exact – Original Equipment manufacturers prohibits the use of their part number or logo on parts sold to other customers. Therefore, the Litens aftermarket part may have minor cosmetic differences but still be exact in performance and design. Installation Tip: This drive has had numerous issues concerning “throwing belts” in wet weather. Various fixes have been offered such as a large pulley washer to keep the belt from jumping and alignment screws on the tensioner. To resolve this issue, Litens engineers have created a “FIX KIT” specifically for this drive. The kit consists of a modified tensioner with a grooved pulley, a grooved idler pulley, and a double-sided serpentine belt.
