Please Name the Part!

I now have one more issue that is starting to stick up. My truck has dual air pumps. There is an idler pulley/tensioner to put tension on the belt. My bearing is going out on it, and I need to find the replacement. I can not seem to find it at any local store. Am I looking under the wrong name for it?

Thanks,

Nick

I looked up tension pulley for a f-250 diesel and only came up with two at O'Reilly.

Thanks, I found those, but mine is a non grooved pulley. I have CA emissions, so they lumped just extra junk on the truck.

Lots of times you can get the bearing if you remove the old one and match up the #'s, napa stocks them sometimes. Make sure you're not looking at an idler pulley instesd of tensioner pulley.
