HJ61 lower tensioner

Went in to repco the other day to buy new tensioner pulleys for the 12HT.

Apparently they dont have the lower tensioner listed in their book.

Does anyone know the part number for the lower pulley only?

Cheers

Low oil pressure 12-HT

Hi ive recently noticed in my hj61 that the oil pressure drops on idle. Before now it has always sat around the 1/2 - 3/4 mark, under load, at idle etc. It still sits at 1/2 - 3/4 mark when driving, but when idling drops right down to the 1/4 mark. Ive read the manual, but i was hoping someone may ...

Im not calling hard done by, as you said, it was only a couple of hundred dollars. The main reason i even asked for the warranty was to see their reaction.

when i spoke to them about it they said "well, if the rep picked it up it 'should' be ok". A representative of their company?

the car is mint so i couldnt give a rats arse about the warranty. I will probably intentionally void it anyway. I do however find it laughable that they can sell a warranty for a car that by their own standards shouldnt be covered. "This contract only covers the breakdown of specific Covered ...

i should have been more specific.

I meant to say, will the older bullbar obstruct the light path on the new model with twin headlights.

hope that makes sense.
