Default 1985 tensioner up for grabs

If someone needs an original tensioner complete, free to anyone, all you have to pay is shipping.

Two minutes.

I've seen stuff get snatched up pretty fast, but that HAS to be a record.

Very good deal even if it is used! Rebuilt tensioners go for hundreds on eBay. I think I have even seen one or two hit over a thousand

Don, the only reason I haven't sold mine yet is because I keep convincing myself that a future owner of my car may want the original tensioner instead of the PKtensionser... I guess that may be wishful thinking though haha

I have kept all of mine.

I just can't bring myself to make money from other people's suffering.


(Or maybe I'm just a hoarder?)

Yes, Still interested. Let me know the shipping. I doubt there is any duty, but I'll handle that also at my end.

Andre - thanks for generosity! Small favors carry far longer than a few bucks in one's pocket.

[QUOTE=Andre The Giant;11361958]Hi Jerry, just sent you a PM.[/QUOTE
Andre, You are a good guy. I am not going to pay this foreward, but I am going to pay it back. When I get your return information I am going to send you something that I make for the 928 that will enhance your car. It wont be worth "thousands" or even enough to buy a tire, but I think you will find it useful. What year is your 928?
