SC300 Tensioner
#2
Well, to answer my own question, the bearing in the serpentine belt tensioner in the SC300 is also 6203 as in the SC400. The bolt however is a normally threaded bolt (left=loose, right=tight). Just to be safe, I used some threadlock when reassembling. I actually ended up just repacking the bearing with grease and now there is no more squeak or tick. Temporary measure until I can get my hands on a new bearing.

if youre replacing the whole assembly and you have any intentions of big power in the future, i would go ahead with the gte 6speed tensioner. it will help dampen the force between shifts and engine vibrations
