like the title says, anyone make this part? the smooth sided one

 

Not that I know of...I just had my stock one chromed.

 

I polished mine...

Enjoy!

Before:


After:

 

bought a Katech idler here

 

chrome billet and anodized all make me think of different finishes.. but i have a black anodized katech tensioner too..

 

Thunder raing sells them

 

he is looking for a idler pully not the tensioner

 

what are the benefits of the Katech idler?

 

 

and i have one

 

I have a Katech tensioner, the idler is smooth sided and bolted to the alternator bracket

 

Not to add to the confusion of this thread, but Chrome and anodize are two totally different processes. Anodize can only be used on aluminum. Tiodize, which is similar to anodize is a process designed and used strictly for titanium, and chrome can be used on quite a few metals, but requires 1 or more coats of brass and / or copper plating / flashing to attach the chrome plating to the aluminum base metal. HTH

 

aftermarket idler?

 

Had my idler pulley powdercoated but it squealing now. I've wanted one like this for awhile, anybody know if it will work?

our idler is smooth sided not ribbed

 

Sorry i meant tensioner pulley. I always refer to it as an idler.

 

seems like everyone confuses the tensioner with the idler. I have a speed inc alternator relocation kit so I don't have a tensioner on this car

 

i got a chrome a/c idler puller from autozone for $12. i just asked for a regular one and they had a chrome one
