G'day all,
I got a friendly surprise as usual at the local Ford dealer - they want $319.90 for an XH Falcon tensioner. I understood the price was supposed to be more like $140 and I'm wondering if Ford has recently decided to double all their list prices. It isn't a part I'd find at any old wrecker but does anyone have any suggestions? We are almost ready to start my car but it would really help if I could have my XH belt installed. Also while I'm at it, does anyone know any radiator shops in Melbourne who would sell a brass EF Natrad radiator for a good price? Cheers for any advice! Jack |

Good grief Charlie Brown! thats one expencive tensioner. You would almost be better to buy a written off XH LMAO j/k
I know you have tried some local popular wrecking near you jack, but have you actually tried ringing close to EVERY wrecking around melbourne seeing if someone has one? I could think of a wreckers near me that might have one being they wreck alot of utes
