Idler pulley bolt

[moexplorer97]

Anyone know what size bolt/thread count the bolt is that holds an idler pulley on a 1996 4.0 OHV? Or where to get one besides a junkyard. A friend had the bolt back out and lost everything going down the highway.

...You will either have to be going to a junkyard or to Ford...

...I would say try Nuelle's 4x4 Salvage for the used bolt or if you only want new, Autozone, O reilly's, Napa, or call Pat at Warrensburg Ford can get the new pulley with the bolt for $38.44...

...Good luck :biggthump

We went with the Ford stealership. I do find it rather dumb for the parts stores to sell ONLY the pulley and the stealership to sell ONLY the pulley WITH the bolt.

I went to a dealership to get an Idler Pulley and bolt for a 1994 Ranger XLT 3.0L V-6. I picked it up today and the bolt was too big. Does anyone know the size and thread countof the bolt?
