Keep every accessory on the belt spinning under steady, controlled tension with the ContiTech Accessory Drive Belt Tensioner Assembly 49208. This spring-loaded tensioner takes up slack in the accessory (serpentine) belt so the pulleys stay properly loaded and aligned. It's a direct-fit replacement for a long list of GM trucks, vans and SUVs, including the 1995-1996 AM General Hummer [V8-5.7L], 1987-1989 Chevrolet Astro [V6-4.3L], 1988-1995 Chevrolet C1500 [V6-4.3L, V8-5.0L, V8-5.7L], 1988-1995 Chevrolet K1500 [V6-4.3L, V8-5.0L, V8-5.7L] and 1988-1995 Chevrolet S10 [V6-4.3L]. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 88 applications.

  • Stable belt control: Reduces belt slippage and misalignment to help prevent premature wear on the belt and driven accessories.
  • Single smooth pulley: One non-flanged, smooth-surface steel pulley measuring 3.54 in outside diameter, 1.20 in wide, with a 1.18 in bore.
  • Accessory drive placement: Serves the accessory drive / air-conditioning section of the belt system.
  • Country of origin: Canada.

If a worn, noisy or weak-spring tensioner is the cause of belt squeal or fluttering, this assembly replaces it to restore proper tension. Signs the original may need replacing include belt chirp or squeal, a rattling or seized pulley, and visible belt wear.
