Default AC Idler pulley
Working on a 1999, stock LS .... does anyone know offhand if the stationary bearing and pulley for the ac belt is the same size as the tensioner pulley and bearing?

Thanks in advance!!

Steve

Mine were the same but I had trouble with an aftermarket steel pulley fitting on the tensioner.
It was too deep and would rub the tensioner.

Thanks for the super clear photo!! Yes, I replaced my tensioner pulley first...had the same problem, I just put a washer behind it so it had a little more clearance.
