Never,change both the belt and tensioner(with both pulley's) every 30k. |

You all know that 60k is the change interval right? Both the belt and tensioner.It's cheaper to replace both every 60k then what can happen if one fails. |

What kind of cost can someone expect to pay to have these replaced? Is it hard to do yourself? |

2003 - changed at 110,500 miles with little signs of wear and no noise or wobble in tensioner assembly. Better to be safe than sorry, right? |

Both the belt and tensioner.It's cheaper to replace both every 60k then what can happen if one fails. x2 -although not quite as obsessive as TJ - but for the Diesel it's 37,500 for Schedule B - so new belt at 37,500 - new belt and tensioner at 75,000. It's way cheaper changing stuff in your driveway - than trying to find parts on the side of a highway in West Texas...... |

2003, replaced both idler and tensioner pulleys at 95K-ish with second belt. Pulleys weren't making noise but I figured since I had a new 30 mile commute (one way) that it would be safer to replace them. |
