I've never had a pulley bearing fail.

One time I had the main pulley on the crank shaft somehow go out of round. I think some rubber in it broke down from heat or wear. That wiped out the tensioner and the belt. Then last night was the second time the spring housing broke open and everything popped out.

They were new parts, but I frankly don't remember where I got them. The new tensioner is coming from FCP Euro. I shopped around and they had the best price.

Hopefully, this will be the last time replacing this part.
