A steel rod. I really like it.

Although I could be wrong, I believe they used V-type in 1979 There are belts and idler pulleys for serpentine belts 5455 and 5473 There is a part number for an idler that you are looking for. 09056246 is the number for it. You can press it with a new bearing if the pulley is still in good condition, as you can see on the parts geek website. The bearing numbers can be seen printed or stamped on the outside of the bearing and can easily be sourced on Amazon. There is usually a bearing number associated with it, such as In addition to the diameter, thickness, and center hole dimensions of the bearing, you can also determine whether it is the right

". I also have a bearing that is sticking out on one side. However, rather than return it, I put it on a bolt and spun it to see what would happen. It may appear that the wheel spins with an imperfect fit, but its visual appearance belies its true operation. After the bushing has been installed on the truck, there is more wobble play in the fitment. Ultimately, I installed it and connected it to my PC. There was no visual glitches when I ran it. It seems likely that the manufacturing tolerance of the hub is loose so the back side of the bearing is uneven. For the bearing to spin true, it is most essential that it is pressed in perpendicularly to the drive surface. To avoid getting too worked up over what is ultimately just an uneven hub flange, I recommend installing the wheel and using it for a couple of days before complaining.
This is the original pulley, which is shaped like a concave washer (shown in the photo upside down to show the shape) and snugs up against the bearing in a convex curve. Immediately to the right of the pulley is this product, which has a clear concave doughnut shape. There is no contact between the concave washer and the bearing, but rather the washer grips the pulley. This means that the bolt presses against the washer, which presses against the pulley itself and prevents it from rotating. If you install it this way, you will likely see your serpentine belt slip and eventually snap, which would be a huge problem. You should always check other resources before you purchase a part to ensure you have the right one. The thing is, replacing this component on Acuras and Hondas is not a straightforward matter. Unless you have done it before and know EXACTLY where to start and what to do when you remove and reinstall, it's not easy. All the best with your future endeavors.
You probably have a bearing issue with the motor if the whine during acceleration sounds like an RC car motor? The part I ordered was used, and I was sent an AcDelco Box Doorman in an effort to save some money. Doorman parts are sometimes useful, but the bearing in it was not smooth, so I sent it back and bought an ACDelco one instead. It was smoother than I even expected the bearing to be on the ACDelco. A great feeling came over me. Buy the ACDelco here and do yourself a favor. It seems like my vehicle runs smoother and gets better mileage.
As shown on your website, the correct size didn't fit my application. I had to return it because the diameter was Upon returning the pulley to Amazon, it shows it will fit my application, but I am being charged $5 when it will not. It would be near impossible for this to happen if they would show the product size instead of the package size.
Vulcan 0 is no longer in service. A new fix installed on a 2004 Taurus in order to get rid of the creepy noise coming from under the car's A noticeable wobble could be seen on the old one. Despite it not being as nice as the OEM part (seems to be slightly thinner metal) the bearing on the new one wasn't shot and it seemed reasonable in price. Although the car is now almost completely silent, the horrible noise from the AC compressor that was muffled by the idler pulley is now painfully obvious. Make sure what you wish for is good for you!.
There are several pulleys that appear to match, but this one is much wider. As far as I can tell, the pulley has a subtle groove completely around the outside, but it is not deep enough to be a problem, so one of the stars went away. Pulleys from Canada are clearly marked on the pulleys.
In this picture, the idle pulley for the main drive belt, not the tensioner assembly, is shown. In addition to this pulley part on the engine, there is a bolt, a pulley retainer washer, and a spacer as well. Amazon sells just the pulley and bearing for about $13, and they sell the complete assembly for $35 at This assembly has absolutely no reason to be purchased. There is nothing to wear out other than the bearing. By removing the existing pulley assembly with one bolt, you'll be able to reuse the bolt, retainer washer, and spacer from the old assembly, and you'll be able to replace the old bearing with a new As soon as the parts have been removed, reinstall them as they were removed. You won't believe how easy it is! You can get it for a lot cheaper than that! You won't believe how new it is! Everything is the same as the I like how quiet it is! A pair of small bolts, two pin connectors). No problem at all! If you compare a repair shop with this, you can save hundreds of dollars. Taking my time, I removed and replaced the idler pulley and tensioner in 3 hours, while enjoying a Saturday morning in my garage with coffee in my hand.
is not a very expensive part, so it makes sense to buy it. I replaced the one with stone bearings - it acted like the bearings were clogged up with dirt The situation would have lasted for a very short time. Don't be a fool and do it smartly.
