York AC pully question!

[esprist]

I have a very original York AC set up that was installed by Datsun dealer back then on one of my 71 car. Now the pully bearing is making a loud nose, but I do not know how to replace this baering or the pully. I can't press it out because there is metal cover over it........ There is no retainer or anything. I do not care about its originality on this at all, but I would appreciate your help here..... The bearing is made bu Nachi(Japanese one).

I am hoping that there is a replacement for this.........

Looks like you have to get a whole new pulley with bearing. Tomorrow I will look at the one spare I have and let you know what condition it is in. Got something to trade?

Thank you. But it has to be new one, or it will make noise again.......

Are you looking for something for trade?

With many thanks, I found an old pully that I can replace the bearing, but later I found this replacement pully assembly from NAPA (made by Gates), so I wanted to share this with you all.

It is #38038 from NAPA and it comes with NTN Bearing #6203LU rather than old bearing #6302.

I was able to replace the bearing on my idler, it was an original 8/70, but the bearing was held in with a snap ring, so different than yours. The local part store had the bearing on the shelf. HTH, Richard.

What great timing for this thread. My idler pulley on my system is screaming as well. Did any of yours look like this?

Let me know guys.

Wow, come to think of it. My bracket looks kind of rusty..

It appears the same one as mine..... but pully #38038 from NAPA and it comes with NTN Bearing #6203LU should do it.

Good looking car!
