Re: Rebuilding The LT5 Tensioner
How many miles did you have on it? Was it done? Or are you just re-working it?
Good idea on the remote cam too - now I need one with 'fingers'...

Re: Rebuilding The LT5 Tensioner
Thanks Dave! I need a replacement tensioner and was ready to spend $138. Phil reminded me of this thread yesterday at the WAZOO get together and since WAZOO have all sorts of old parts inventory (Capt. Jim unlike me saves all worn-out parts), ordered two Dayco L98 tensioners for $79 including shipping. Soon we will have 2 new, fresh tensioners. What a resourceful bunch!!!

Re: Rebuilding The LT5 Tensioner
That's wonderful Secondchance. I'm very glad the information Was helpful. If you need the artical Mark and I did on the news letter that can be found on the members only section of the registry website. It brings me great joy to know that it has been helpful and please post about your progress if you can. Nice thing about those L98 Dayco tenioners is that they come with the good pully with the guilds on the sides instead of the smooth one.

Re: Rebuilding The LT5 Tensioner
FYI, after an evening of Googling I have not been able to locate a Dayco 89298 (L98 tensioner for rebuild parts).
Well, I did get a few hits for places saying it can be drop shipped but expected delivery is two months away. Maybe I'll contact Marc or Jerry tomorrow to see if either has one or leads. |
