It's your belt tensioner. Let me guess... SOHC? They're cheap from Ford and fairly easy to install.
 






Thanks for the quick reply... Is there a link that shows how to put this on? I tried the search function to no avail.....
 






Just went and bought it, How do I put it on???
 






remove the belt tension (if you still have a belt!) with a socket and breaker bar on the end of the pulley itself. take the belt off the pulley (alternator or A/C first). Then it's just a simple, unbolt the old one, bolt in the new one, and put the belt back on using your breaker bar and socket again.
 






where's the bolt....? they don't come with them.....and I hope you have a new belt also
 






The bolt is Still in the truck. It snapped of and the bolt stayed......

Im having a hard time gettin to this. Can anyone give this to me Step By Step???? :(
