Anyone know of a aftermarket replacement AC compressor idler pulley ('95 XJ6)? The jag pulley is $70 online for a $10 bearing and $2 plastic wheel. You don't want to know what the dealer wants. Most other car idler pulleys are $15 to $25? I know the bearing ID is 17mm, but I need to know the OD as mine fell apart (somewhere in the 75 to 90mm range)?

"When your little plastic pulley for the AC goes, don't live without AC keep the useless plastic crap part, and take it to a junk yard, locate a Lincoln Mark the 93- 2002 model it has the same exact size thread size and its 5$ not a hundred and did i mention its made out of steel so you never have to f*&^ with it ever again. I DID IT IT WORKS. my jaguar runs like a champ and i have found really cheap solutions that work better then the original."


I think it can help you

 

Thanks All.
I ended up using a gates 38007. It was an exact replacement for the jag pulley. Wish it solved the problem, but when the comp clutch engaged, the comp locked up and smoked the belt. So time for a new comp/dryer, etc. Is there a sticky link for the repair? Is the cheap Denso comp from RockAuto any good?
