    So my 2010 is a bit rusty underneath. I imagine I'll be in the front of the line if/when the "frame settlement" is announced. In the mean time I went ahead and had my recall leaves put on and had them take a gander at the frame. Pretty much confirmed my suspicions, a bit rusty under there. They also said my pulleys are looking kind of rough and would be a good idea to swap them out. Not in a dealer trying to sell you a cabin air filter kind of way, but more of a "Hey fyi, might want to look into this". So, I think I'll heed their advice and look into it.

    Any good places to look for new pulleys, or anyone that makes a set of them? I was just going to do the ole' RockAuto approach like always, but figured I'd ask here incase there was a vendor with some nice pulleys I didn't know about.

    Thanks
    -Josh

    Old pulleys can probably be removed, cleaned, clear coated, re-installed.

    I think it's beyond surface rust. I'd rather just replace them instead of trying to patch them up.
