I was getting lots of noise from the idlers so I spent most of the day finding new bearings and installing everything. There are two bearings in the larger pulley and one in the smaller pulley. Luckily, all three are the same part. Finding these bearings in this small town was a 3-hour journey, costing more in fuel than the price of the parts lol Sorry, no photos.

The P/N is: (NTN) TM8301LU

Your local parts store can cross-reference this number. It should cost about $5.

Almost forgot, you'll need:

-10mm socket for plastic underbody crap
-14mm socket or wrench for the pulley nuts
-12mm socket for the adjusters...and an extension & u-joint make things easier
-a press for removing/installing bearings...BFH will suffice

Total time for repair: ~1.5 hours + trips to the parts store(s) and beer run(s)

Order,order,order. Makes your life easy. Only time I go to the parts store is when I have to have a part now or I forgot something when placing my order.

The parts from Nissan were expensive. They won't sell the bearings separately. You have to buy the pulleys.

You're talking to the king of ordering stuff. None of the local stores sell parts for BMW, Audi, Porsche, Mercedes, or Volvo. And the Nissan dealer sucks.

Did not mean Nissan, could have be an on line auto parts site. I went in today for a leaf spring bushing, well that did not go so well. They looks at me and said it's not a normal ware item.
