istruggle2gate11 Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Can somebody please supply me with the part no for a idler pulley used on on the v belt style RRV8. Circa 1989. If standing at the front of the car looking into the engine bay, Its positioned on the lower left hand side, and tensions the water pump v belt. There is also one on the Sanden type air conditioning bracket. Its about 2.5" in diameter. It looks like the bearing could be replaced, but I dont want to destroy it finding out. Searched Rimmer Bros website but cant find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searched Rimmer Bros website but cant find it. If you remove the pulley and clean it up you should/may be able to read the bearing number details on the front edge of the bearing - Go to the nearest bearing supplier and ask for that bearing, should only be a few dollars. The "Old" bearing should just knock out, then you can press the new one in - If carefull you can also set it up square and tap it in with a hammer and a piece of hardwood. Good luck hope this helps.

istruggle2gate11 Posted August 16, 2007 Author Share Posted August 16, 2007 Hi Guys, thanks for the offers, I will gladly purchase one off you if I can, who wants to sell? BBC - how about a bit of R&D, perhaps they do come apart easily? Might be worth seeing if I could tap the front and fit a grease nipple?
