I haven't been on the boards in awhile. What's this about a new ATI bracket? I'd like to see pics as well.

Does it use a spring tensioner similar to the SDCE tensioner? I'm running a steel bracket, 8-rib, ATI SuperDamper combination. Belt slip hasn't been an issue, but I'm really wearing down the idler pulley and it's starting to make an awful racket... bearings are going bad.

How would a bracket help with belt slip?!?! Unless it had some more idlers and tensioners on it.

i think it has to do something with the bracket flexing and pulley hitting against the bracket.

I don't think its spring loaded, I guess they put another idler pulley on it to give more belt wrap, thats all that was needed in the first place
