You could have saved a fair amount of $ by getting the 2 smaller pulleys from Carquest and replacing the bearing in the larger pulley. I can't remember exactly what I paid, but it was around $10 for the bearing and $20 for each pulley - and these are metal pulleys and not the stock plastic ones.

 

Once again, things that could've been brought to my attention YESTERDAY!!!!!!

 

lol
Actually there have been many postings about this with part numbers and all.

 

I was in carquest looking for the either the full 80mm pulley or just the bearings. They could not find anything for me. I ended up buying the 80mm from AB. The smaller 70mm pulley changed from plastic to metal and is only $35 at the dealer. Good price. I also found the Tensioner assembly with metal pulley by Gates at Orielly's for only $55. That is a Deal. Here is my list of links for my other post. I found the tensioner assembly will work on a 03-04, even though Gates only lists it for a 00-02. Same depth tensioner, same diameter pulley.

• Tensioner Assembly + Pulley - $55 Gates Part # :38245 Gates - Automatic Tensioner Assembly
• 70mm idler Pulley - $35 LR Dealer
• 80mm idler Pulley AB $45 PQR101150K Pulley Idler 80MM Polyvee
• Gates Serpentine Belt PN: K070922 $42 Gates - Automotive V-Ribbed Belts

 

Bundu - apparently I missed all of those posts...

Bosshogt - separate shipping is what didn't make it worth it for me. BPoUtah has the right pulley for $25 FYI

 

There was a post in Jan: https://landroverforums.com/forum/sh...pulley+bearing

I replaced the bearing for the large pulley and replaced the 2 smaller pulleys from Carquest, they looked up the part numbers and had them in the next day - no shipping cost to me.

 

Good to hear that because I am getting hit with the same noise.

I can see my tensioner pully do a little 'dance' and it chirps everytime it bounces ever so slightly.


Nothing like a quiet engine....!
