Default Anyone remove the lower tension pulley?

I have a noisy pulley and will R&R it but the bolt won`t come out because it`s hitting the engine carrier. Does anyone know the best way to replace this?
thanks Mike

Mike on the engine you have two idler pulley's located to the left and right of the tensioner (which has a pulley) If any of the two idler pulleys have failed you will need to remove your engine support which is alot easier to do when you have your exhaust pulled.

I'm not sure EVERYONE appreciates his wealth of knowledge based on the last few days posts.

I certainly am grateful for him being on here though.
