[QUOTE="Matt Chamberlain, post: 1046513, member: 74713"] I will keep the thread posted on my success. 100% rattle at start is gone, but have a little rattle at 2400rpms like i had with the main chain a while back. I had been making my own "manual" tensioners by drilling out a rear tensioner and tapping it out with an adjuster bolt... keeping the spring and maybe hydraullics plus a hard stop with the bolt. Anyway, for under 40 bucks, these tensioners were probably a better setup. Yeah, i assume these are strictly chinese. I initially overadjusted it and it rattled more... backed it off... 90% reduction in rattle. I might be missing a chunk of plastic in there haha. Build quality of there tensioners is very good.
