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.

I wouldn't say I swear by NAPA, but they are one of the places I can usually
get what I need without going to the dealer or waiting a week for the next
truck.

Re: idler pulley
I take it you haven't sampled NAPA's "economy" line of parts. Same price as
everyone else, but the quality is lower.

Re: idler pulley
AH! We're talking about the same thing, just different pieces. The
"bushing" is a spacer/ washer that fits inside the "wheel" part of the
pulley. That wheel has a roller bearing in the center that the spacer
fits thru. If you look at the mount, you will see that the spacer
butts up tight against the mount and keeps us gorillas from pinching
the bearing when we crank down on the bolt. I was concerned about the
bearing inner race spinning on the spacer core if it froze but it
seems to be pretty snug. My spacer is cast aluminum, near as I can
tell - wouldn't serve as a bushing for more than a few minutes.
