paul mac Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 however what about the other pulleys? would they be ok? i got a cheap set of pulleys (alternator, fan, water pump) from the States about 3 years ago and they have been fine, at the end of the day an alloy pulleys a pulley who ever makes it, apart from the harmonic damper on the crank which Mr T spent a lot of time on, be advised if your changing the alternator pulley go buy a new nut from Toyota (about £2) and just split the old one as they are a PITA to get off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
