Belt Pulley Assembly

Hi guys,

Just trying to confirm that I'm not about to purchase extra parts, I believe the bearings are going out in one of my belt assembly pulleys, so I've opted to replace the pulleys and tensioner.

This is for a 2005, 5.4L XLT F150.

Just to confirm,

There are 2 identical "smooth" idler pulleys;
There is 1 "grooved" idler;
There is one tensioner assembly that typically comes with a pulley;


Is the above correct? Should I replace the belt if I am replacing the other parts? Truck has 151K on it and has never had the belt replaced.

This job seems like an easy - bolt off - bolt on - job, nothing complicated about it?

Thank you all so much.

Correct.
I just did mine today at 90k miles. I bought the four pulleys and air filter from NAPA (Gates) but should have ordered the Gates kit from Rockauto as I would have saved $70.
