Paxton help quick!!!!

[Sweet Ride]

Hey guys and gals:

My Paxton belt tensioner assembly took a crap today and I need one quick.

I have tried to cross reference the part number without much success. I imagine this is an off the shelf part of some kind. Anyone have any info on a possible replacement without going through Paxton?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

602.757.7021

I would contact Doug Levin and buy his improved tensioner. Otherwise getting a replacement from Paxton may be the only option. I doubt it is an off the shelf part.

For sure call doug. I wouldn't even bother replacing it with another stock or you will eventually run into the problem again. The stock one is weak.

dougs number is 954-434-9356

Now that the emergency has passed, I will poke a little fun here.

All I'll say is that it WAS very slow for a couple of hours. Jack stands will do that...

But now that it's back on the road it's a different story. I'm rippin' those yellow cars to pieces...



BTW, NAPA tensioner part number 38114 will work for the Gen II Paxton kit in a pinch. It needs some "slight" modification but works nonetheless.

Good to hear NAPA sells something that works on our cars!

Like 'em or not, (I know a lot of the "OEM Only" guys don't) NAPA has a surprising selection of Viper parts. Or, for the "engineering" minded, they have a bunch of parts that can be made to work on a Viper. Sometimes it pays to know a parts book.

Might have to see what they have then. Never know what I may need!
