    I may have one if i didn't trash the bracket, but the bearing is unhappy. I ran it for 10k+ miles though with it squeaking loudly.

    Hey guys...

    Having the same issue with a loose tensioner pulley... Was giving off an ugly loud sound when running so I removed the belt and get a rattling from it clanking around now.

    Can anyone confirm the part number for the pulley or bearing?
    Can't seem to find it on realoem.

    Thanks in advance!

    If you can get the pulley the bearing presses out unless I'm mistaken. Should just be a standard size sealed bearing
