I replaced mine with a 136 amp model intended for a 1998 Grand V8. Pretty easy swap. I used a $10 angle grinder allow it to slip into the two piece mount on my '96 XJ. If you want more into on the swap, let me know.

Ended up costing me $7.98 with CT sales tax

Thanks for the tip

Don't know yet. Searched and searched online until I found an exploded view in a parts catalog. Literally figured all out at 5:00, called the dealership and got nothing--they went home already. I have never worked so hard to replace a serpentine belt.

The bolt I broke is indeed 6503 198

The new good news is I got the bolt out. Local repair shop got the torch out, and for $5 they bolt is out. Best $5 I've ever spent and a huge money saver because I cringe at what a dealer would charge for the part. I tried propane, two locking pliers, more Kroil, wire brushing the bolt, etc. and...

Well, broke the bolt. The good news is the part the long adjustment bolt and the pulley bolt thread into is loose from the bracket. I got that piece and the pulley out. Now, I'm off to see if I can find these pieces or if a machine shop can get the bolt out.

I only loosened the bolt on the pulley. The pulley now slides (not in the direction I need it to), but the diagonal bolt appears to be uncooperative.

Thanks for the input, people. The propane torch is coming out today. Hopefully I can get to it without melting anything that shouldn't melt.

I am trying to move the tensioner pulley on my 96 XJ. I loosened the pulley, but can't seem to get the diagonal bolt to budge. I am missing something? I have soaked it with Kroil and still nothing.
