FAQ: Cheap NSK Idler and Tensioner Bearings location

[JonesyGTR]

Does anyone know if the bearings assemblies are the same for the RB26? The RB25 ones? Bearing Industries thought they might be, but were not sure. Just want to confirm before I purchase.

Cheers,

Dan

they definitely are. i got the idler and tensioner for my rb26 from bearing industries based on this thread

When I inquired at Bearing Industries, they did say that if you bring down your old bearing/s, they will match it/them up with new ones.

So you can give them the part numbers to see if they have stock, then take your's down and compare before you buy!

But, from the above post, it looks like you don't have to worry...

Idler: NSK 56TB 2801 B01

Tensioner: NSK 60TB 0683 EA7L 806

I think the idler was the more expensive one (about $48). The tensioner about $28

These were for an R33!!

Not sure if R32 is the same. The tensioner is the same as for VL commo hence its cheapness.

Sorry for bringing this thread back..

Can someone else please confirm these part numbers for the ECR33 tensioner and Idler pulleys/bearings.

I have seen a few different numbers. I know CBC has apparently got a different number, it would be good to have the genuine NSK product numbers and possibly even the CBC ones so there's no confusion.

Thanks
