I'll be linking a video to show the exact issue in case I can't properly explain it, but I'm looking for some help with fixing my idler pulley. A while back I stripped the inside of the block where the bolt for the idler pulley screws in and I'm unsure how to fix it to get it back in. As of now the bolt can basically slide in and out of the hole without needing to be threaded in at all. Trying to see what my options are to fix the problem.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Here is the link to the video:

 

The idler pulley mounting hole is in a replaceable plate, not the block.

You can buy the small part for a few bucks and change it.

 

Does the plate have a specific part name so I know what I'm looking for? Thank you for the help

 

This should be right one:
31175-pcx-000

Thank you both.

 

You probably want to buy the bolt as well, the one you are showing in the video is not a stock one.
I'm guessing someone messed it up before and rethreaded that bracket.

 

Parts stack is critical here, so get the oem bolt, and anything else you are missing.

In order, reference pic link above:
8 Bolt
6 shield
7 special washer
3 pulley
5 bushing
2 pulley bracket (replaceable part)

 

Got it, I really appreciate the help guys.
