Help with belt tensioner removal
I'm getting ready to replace the belt on a 05 tC and thought about doing the tensioner at the same time. From what I understand some bolts need to be removed so the engine can be jacked up to get the long bolt out of the tensioner. I've never messed with engine mounts or anything so I was wondering if someone could tell me specifically what needs to be removed so I can get that bolt out. If you have pictures handy, it would be appreciated. Thanks a lot

https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...belt+tensioner there it tells you that you have to loosen or remove the motor mount and jack the motor up a bit to get the the tensioner. you can also get to it by removing the wheel and plastics..
im not too sure if you have to replace it so may miles or not, but i think it only needs to be replaced when you have problems with it.. im still researching it up to see if its one of those things that need to be replaced every 50k or so..

I may just do the belt for now as I don't think the tensioner is bad yet. I figured I would just do it while I had the belt off, but I'm not sure I want to go at lifting the motor and what not. What mount has to be removed?
