idler pulley

[jct]

going to be needing to replace my idler pulley some time soon rockauto and napa pretty much have the same pulleys and only the pulleys just need to figure out the mounting hardware since the threaded stud is keyed

I put one of these on mine. The belt now goes from crank to water pump to power steering pump. No more idler.

Without looking at it, maybe the bolts are bottoming out in the hole.
