High I'm posting because I noticed there are a lot of people who are missing the tensioner to the SR20 power steering and are having trouble finding a replacement so I'm going to share my fix from when I couldn't find a factory tensioner ANYWHERE!

You will need:
1) KA- tensioner BOLT! (This is the bolt that runs the pump up and down.)
2) the carrier piece of metal that the bolt runs through. (Also from the KA)
3) 2 nuts. One of which needs a washer fixed to the end.



-Now all you have to do is turn the carrier into the center of the bolt like in the picture. (This gives the bolt enough room to turn in) and place the 2 nuts at the end of the bolt. Use the washer side out as a base plate and use the second nut to lock the first nut into place.

-Next screw the carrier into the bottom bolt hole of the original tensioner location. It should fully tighten down perfectly angled up pointing up at the PS pump.



Now tighten the bolt down and you will find a flat circular section under the bottom of the pump. You want to place the bolt on that spot and tighten it down. AND YOUR SET!
