Default WTB ASAP: Alternator Bolt/block/tensioner thing

I need the tensioner for a 90-93 alternator. I need the block, the adjustment bolt, and the nut/bolt that holds the block to the alternator and bracket.

I need it ASAP. Shipping to 28607, NC.

Please no stupidly outrageous prices. I think I sheered the bolt/nut do the bracket and the rest came loose. My poor car hates me...help it out

If in a pinch, you can just use a bolt/nut with lock washer. Just tension the alternator with a pry bar, and have someone tighten the bolt.

I've actually done that before, but it came loose and I lost a belt and spent 2 hours on the side of the road, at night, halfway between home and school. Not a fun night.


I've got a daily, so it should be ok. I just need the tensioner so I can start fixing the tune before next weekend. (Auto-x and going home)

This should be in the WTB section, not sure how I managed to post it in this section.

Somebody mind fixing that?

Hey miatamania, sorry I didn't log in all weekend...

I'm pretty sure I've got one, will send it to you free o' charge.

Am in College Station for class today, probably make it home tomorrow night and shoot you a pic/whatever to make sure you get what you need.

I also have a spare pivot bolt, but it is missing the nut...kinda like hustler's Vday celebration.

If not.

Go onto miata.net or ClubRoadster and look for metal man. He buys miata and parts them out. He may have one in stock. He is local here to Atlanta and should be able to ship it out quickly for you. Not sure what his price would be on it.
