Huh??

How can a stud have 2 pins attached to the top?

Are you thinking the 2 holes in the tensioner are for the stud?

That's where the tool goes to adjust the belt.

Ok, there is a stud that is suppose to run through the midlle hole and a nut and washer attaches to the other side.  That is the part I have lost.

Ok now that makes sense..

I may have a stud but it may take a couple days to confirm.

Where are you located on this big Blue planet?

I am in Cookeville TN. 38501.  If you could goto autozone.com and look up part # 024-0985 that is the tensioner I have.  The stud I need goes in the middle, maybe this will help you more to see the pic.

Thanks a bunch!!!!!!!

You should be able to get the part from your local CarQuest dealer.
