Re: 164 serpentine belt tensioner wheel - fiat replacement part?

Doug,

BthereDT.  Do your self a favor and return the fiat bearing.  I was never
able to find the proper inner race/bushing even a bearing supply store.  The
Alfa part is more expensive but I would buy it if I had it do again.  BTW,
my squeal turned out to be the A/|C compressor clutch bearing about the self
destruct.
