hey guys,

my DR30 (FJ20ET) blew about 3 alternators with the previous owner, and current one rattles badly ... i traced the problem to the crank pulleys or harmonic balancer or watever the proper term is (im not much of a mechanic haha)

the front crank pulley is fixed, but then the rear 2 pulleys that are connected as 1, one to the alternator and one to the a/c pump, i understand these are meant to 'float' slightly on the shaft, but mine are worn or something inside and move heaps, as in they move and hit the block and hit the crank pulley (up and down entire shaft of movement)

as such, one of the pulleys is badly ground away on 1 side from scraping on the crank pulley, and the alternator's blowing bearings pulling the thing into line all the time.

i was just curious if anyone has had similar problems? im a car mod nut, so i was curious if their are any after market pulley kits available to replace my worn pulleys with? or is it just best to try and get hold of second hands pulley and shaft bearing or watever it needs?

i know GFB do pulley kits so i checked their site but they have nothing for FJ20, so just thought id query if anyone else has had similar problems and knows of aftermarket pulleys or the like. I always try to upgrade when i break something ! ! ;D haha

im in perth btw ..

cheers,

ant
