Got an alternator for FrankenRanger there, it was no good and I ended up buying a new one from Ford (YIKE$). They wouldn't take it back, saying it worked when the shipped it (yeah, the shaft froze in shipment). Then it took 3 trys to get a functional belt tensioner for FrankenRanger. To their credit, they exchanged these no questions asked, but I would have hoped that the inspection process would have been better (the two broken ones showed cracks in the arm before I even put tension on them). The current one seems to be surviving, even pulling the 8 PSI Kenne Bell blower.
By the way, the tensioner is about the only 2nd hand part on the truck, if you're interested in buying it.
Hope this helps.
