re: AC Idler replacement
You can get them at the local parts stores. I just looked online at Shucks and they have them for around $15.00 just look under Belts and Hose and you’ll see idler pulley…
I have also pressed the bearings out and put new bearings in them before but for this price why bother…

I'm not "Brand Loyal" Ford-Chevy-Dodge-Toyota I have them all, one even cross mixed...
If it Looks good and Works good then it's ok by me. Everything has its issues from time to time...

re: AC Idler replacement
Thanks. I have looked several times at various online parts stores/catalogs and have not found them, I guess I am looking in the wrong places!
