What This Pulley Helps Address

  • Belt misalignment caused by a worn idler pulley
  • Squealing or chirping from accessory drive belt wear
  • Rough pulley rotation from heat and vibration exposure
  • Corrosion on metal pulley surfaces
  • Loss of proper belt routing on the accessory drive system

Installation Notes

Verify pulley alignment and belt routing before installation. Inspect the accessory drive belt, tensioner, and adjacent pulleys for wear at the same time, since a damaged belt system can shorten the service life of the replacement pulley. Confirm vehicle application by year and model before ordering part number 028145278E.
