Does anyone have a viscous heater they do not need. One with pooched clutch coil would be fine. I just need the thing for an idler pulley anyway. Heater is disabled on my CRDs. Mine suffered a bearing failure that pretty much destroyed the whole clutch and pulley. I have a replacement bearing, but nothing to work with. ironically, the heater itself is fine. Thanks in advance. |

Look into a dorman ac compressor Bypass pulley, there is on that will work for cheap and the bearing is replaceable if it ever goes out |

If I had my lathe and mill set up in my new shop, I would be fabbing an idler pulley up. |

I did one for a customer a few years ago, I forget the part number but I have 2 low mileage spares for my rigs that I can use for specs, I will find the numbers for yalls. I like them on my rigs so I have instant heat in the winter. |

A Gates 36167 should work nicely with a fabricated bracket, spacer and bolt. $32 from Rock Auto. Steel pulley instead of plastic. It is only slightly smaller diameter than the original clutch so should not require a different belt (approx. 1/2" shorter). This is actually from a Mack or Volvo rig. The Mack part is about $100 but includes the bolt and spacer, which would have to be massaged to fit anyway. |
