Tensioner pulley bolt
Does anyone know off the top of their head the size/pitch for the tensioner pulley bolt? Not the long tensioner, but the center "shaft" for the pulley.
My tensioner pulley's bearing decided to go out last night, and living in the middle of nowhere, I am dead in the water until my new pulley arrives Wednesday (Unless I lower my standards and drive an hour to Autozone). OK, fine - I'll just take it off and be ready. During the process of disassembly, the head broke off of the bolt. Not a problem, my ghetto side came out and I busted out the Vise Grips (Note to self: Never-Seez on the threads and a little white lead on the bushing when this thing goes back together). Got the stub out but I did enough damage to it that miking the major diameter is pretty much pointless and I don't own a metric pitch gauge anyway.
I'm hoping to pick up a new bolt at either the hardware store or the friendly neighborhood Cat dealer. It looks like it is just a standard flange bolt, but is it a standard size?

Pretty sure this is it, metric 10mm, 1.5 pitch, 40mm length.

I'll run into the parts department and get one tomorrow.
Thanks for saving what is left of my hair.
