New idler pulley bearings.

I was hearing a lot of noise coming from the idler pulleys. I hear most people get new pulleys. Well I removed the Idlers form my 87 and cleaned them up too see that they only require one 6203 2RS bearing each. I am a millwright so I just went to my work and pressed the old ones out and new ones in and I was on the road again. Total cost of 2 bearings is about 6 dollars for me.

Good deal, how about a write up detailing the tools necessary and the steps involved?

Would you like me to just make a new post with write up or just post it here. Very simple actually.

That would be cool. Once the other is up I will delete this post. I myself have only worked with Wheel bearings on IFS vehicles and pinions. I have been curious to know how to remove them and the type of press needed to seat them.

Thanks for the help.
