HOW TO | Replace Idler Pulley Bearing

When it came time to replace the pulley bearing on my cars, I always bought a new pulley with bearing pressed in. But I recently realized you can save money by pressing in a new bearing. I tried this out recently while helping a friend with her 2002 Mustang and it worked great. Cost of the Japanese bearing was about $10 on Amazon.

Torque specification for this pulley on the 2002 Mustang is 22 ft lbs.
