Fd power steering adjustment bolt

It's the bolt that Half of it has regular threads & half of it is reverse threads.it moves the idler pulley up and down to give the power steering belt tension.Mazda told me I had to buy the whole Power steering bracket assembly which cost $190 does any one have one?Or can give me a part # just for the bolt? I think the rep at mazda just didn't want to look it up for a bolt.

Give Ray a call...

I don't have any experience on whether or not you can buy the bolt separately, but if anyone knows, it would be Ray Crowe:

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! I just called Ray the bolt alone is available it's a $10 dollar part.I placed a order.
I'll close the thread once I receive the part just so I can post the parts # for anyone else needing it.Thanks again for your help!

I ran into the same problem,only with an FC.
Just for future reference,the "quick fix" is a piece of threaded rod with a couple nuts.(m6).I had some guy weld a nut to the top of the rod and Boom,Done...long *** bolt!

Thread moved from Parts wanted.
Now Locked as Info is up and is pretty well self explanatory.
