Got a 3 litre 02 patrol,the tensioner pulley bearing is very noisy,rang nissan and was told that they don't just sell the bearing,Have to buy complete tensioner assembly. (new tensioner $400).Any of you folks out there know of an aftermarket supplier for this bearing.
cheers Dave WA.

Is the bearing removable from the pulley?

If it is, just replace the bearing with an equivalent from a bearing shop. The bearing will have an ID number which they can use to match anew one for you.
