Default crank pulley wobble.

Alright humor me with another question. I noticed the crankshaft pulley has a wobble. The center part where the bolt is spins true its the outer part where the belt rides that wobbles, I assume the rubber part between the two pieces is to blame. Its enough of a wobble at idle that the belt walks side to side on the closest idler pulley. This wobble seems most prominent at idle and is not noticeable at higher revs. The replacement pulley from AB is $670! So this is not an option. Maybe they all wobble? Is this a big problem?

If you research it I bet you will find others from other cars that fit and are much much cheaper.

Contact Paul Grant, I know he just parted a truck with a bad block. I saw it last Tuesday when I was there getting parts. He won't sell you junk.
