the part stores cant help out?

Local parts store asked if i could get them a number. Explorers are not a common vehicle over here so spares are sometimes difficult to find. UK ford dealers are expensive so I try to go with the independants. Can you recomend a US web based store who can ship one over ? I've seen through searches that they are around $£30-$40, shipping shouldn't be to excessive.

part number 3896510 £50.50 direct from Ford!! that's the one that tensions the belt on the alternator, if that's the part you need.

Andrew Page bolton.
Its a Ford part but Page's did it for the same price and they did all the leg work, very nice of them.
Fitted it tonight staight forward, 1 bolt. new belt to small though so have to take it back tomorrow. Should have taken it in when getting the new one but there was no drawing of the layout so I left it in place until I could sketch it out befor replacing it.
