Default crank pully

how often if ever should this be replaced?

I have a98 TA and in 02 it was replaced because the rubber O-ring was half gone and it's was in stoage form 03-Sep.07. When its running and you look straight down at pully I have aslight wobble that gets less with RPM. the O-ring is looking a little old with some deteriation.

Should I change it?

Yes you want to change it, the rubber ring is bonded on and when it fails it will come off, with the motor running at any rpm it can be pretty nasty when it comes off.

ok...stock or aftermarket???

I'm running a stock motor and don't see myself getting the H/C package now that I have a newborn...

I ask because, is aftermarket worth the extra cash when it comes to durability and life span?

I would just get another stock one. You won't feel much of a difference w/ an UD pulley and slowing down your accessories to free up a little more hp is not worth it IMO.
