Sales Tax (0%): $0.00 Total: $115.53 No free shipping ProCaliber. Still cheaper for two then Partszilla. Free shipping for PartsZilla after $200.

Member Contributer Cogswell Posted January 29, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted January 29, 2016 Good catch - it's free shipping over $99. I figured both would be replaced so the total would be $133.08 which would get the free shipping - but not on just one or a lesser total. On-line retailers are always making us figure out how to game the system! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer aristo Posted February 9, 2016 Author Member Contributer Share Posted February 9, 2016 Order arrived today, but was missing 1 tensioner and 1 metal cap. I have sent an email to procaliber and we shall see how good their customer service is at fixing an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lint Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I have manual tensioners on my 05. I think I messed up the o-rings tho because they are leaking a small bit of oil. They install easy and they are very simple to adjust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumblestrip Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I have manual tensioners on my 05. I think I messed up the o-rings tho because they are leaking a small bit of oil. They install easy and they are very simple to adjust. My '04 has the manual CCT and no issues at all. Adjustment a breeze for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
