I have nothing to do with the parties selling the parts - but it occurred to me this might be just what some people are looking for.

Anyway i was looking for some gearbox mount plates and today, chanced across this tensioner device. About $17 US... and they're reputable. been doing business with them for years.

Says its only for Tiger 1 but, when they say that all that does is get the gears and wheels turning in my head how am I going to repurpose this thing...

Interesting but wouldn't adjusting the idler arms up and down also cause the idler arms to move in and out and cause track alignment problems? The best I can see from the photos it looks as if the idler arms screw onto the threaded center rod.
