"Belt tensioner bolt" The 8mm Hex head pivot That's my next issue id probably run into. All I have is a 16" breaker bar with a 3/8 , 8mm hex head. Id probably end up needing a really strong impact?

"Belt tensioner bolt" The 8mm Hex head pivot bolt?

Is this sarcasm or literally? Lol. Welding required ,? for a little stinking bolt that got the head rounded out a bit? A little extra mechaniism there.

I don't have enough clearance to use a rachet or socket on this pulley or I would of just used a socket to remove or say loosen the nub without stripping the head. Im going to give it a shot with some vice grips tomorrow.

Ok I'll give that a shot tomorrow thank you.

a pair of long nose locking pliers? or any standard locking vice grips will work?

a pair of long nose locking pliers? or any standard locking vice grips?

I'll give this a shot tomorrow without actually trying to snap it. See if I can get it any what loose or anything after re.obe the two other ones. Thanks for your advice.

Dang it. Don't have a sawzall. Trying with a pair of vice my best bet?

That's sure one way to do It lol. What would you say is my cheapest option to tackling this?

Is this used with a ratchet? there's no clearance to use a rachet with a socket on the pulley that I'm having the issue with. that's why all i had was a cheap/decent wrench from Amazon.

and the tensioner is still required to be removed to remove the pulley even i believe??

I believe I believe there's a bolt behind the pulley.

If I don't have a pair of vice grips on hand would a pair of needle nose pliers work? , even if it meant completely ruining the bolt and just replacing it after? or would a better recommendation or cheaper recommendation alternative just to get a pair of vice grips?

I don't know if the pic is well enough but 2 of the bolts are fully loose the one closest to me is pretty well rounded off.
