That's about what they dinged him for the idler. I got mine about 4
years ago for right at $10 - from the dealer yet!
Mike was talking about a bushing rather than a bearing setup - that I
have never seen. I just can't see how a bushing would hold up under
the lateral loading and rpm. I did notice that the original one on
the '88 had metal caps over the bearing while the new ones had a a
seal/cover that were a single piece of plastic.

You and Jeff Strickland swear by NAPA, it's a last resort for me as
everything is marked up by at least a factor of two. The only receipt I
have have handy is for the same Spicier Universal Joint for half their

Very strange....
I have changed a few including my 88's and they all were bushings. The
bushing has a big washer or metal cap over the end of it with a bolt
going through the middle. I had to buy all 3 pieces separately.....
I think I have one receipt for the bushing. If so it would be part
#33002201 bushing 24-025-026 and I had to special order it for $2.15.
The pulley would be part #53002905 pulley 07-004-001 and it cost me
$23.99.
I then realized when I got the old one off I also needed the bolt and
washer. Can't put my hands on that receipt...
This was back in 99.
