Gates 05-10 Ford Mustang GT DriveAlign Automatic Belt Tensioner

This is the Gates DriveAlign Automatic Belt Tensioner, part number 38274. What you get in the box is the tensioner assembly itself, ready to be installed on your vehicle's accessory drive system. This tensioner is designed to keep the correct amount of tension on your serpentine belt, which is crucial for making sure all your accessories like the alternator, power steering pump, and A/C compressor run smoothly.

Gates has built this tensioner to handle the demands of daily driving and more. It's a well-built unit that's made to replace your original tensioner directly, meaning it should fit right without needing any modifications. This is important because a properly functioning tensioner prevents belt slippage, which can cause noise and premature wear on the belt and pulleys. This particular tensioner is a popular choice for many Ford and Lincoln vehicles, including models like the Ford F-150, Ford Expedition, and Lincoln Navigator, in addition to the Ford Mustang GT.
