[QUOTE="Darren5.0L, post: 14641599, member: 31098"] Check the outside diameter of the bearing and if the pulley isn't ruined or bent out of round, you could possibly just get a new bearing from NAPA for less than $10 and rebuild it yourself. I had a Metco Aux idler bracket snap and drop into the blower drive of my GT500 once, I wasn't very pleased with what it did to the belt. I just ended up buying new idler from another vendor and luckily I had a spare belt kicking around. [I]Edit:[/I] Just noticed the entire tensioner snapped off as well, that sucks, there isn't a lot of options for fixing that piece... [/QUOTE]
