They're forward threaded but I will warn you. The accessory belt tensioner is only held on by one bolt! This is fine, but when you take it off, if you put it back on and it doesn't seem to be threading... note that the unit pivots so that the bolt hole isn't lined up on the oil filter assembly! This cost me about an hour of f-ing with it thinking I somehow stripped the bolt hole!

stripping the bolt hole is also not a good thing.

hard to do... i thought i had but it turned out that the mounting plate on the tensioner pivots and i was just off... confused the hell out of me.
