    Here’s what I’m looking for. From a diagram I found looking up the number you gave me, the part with center nut is labeled 88443. I cannot seem to find this anywhere online.

    Unfortunately they dont sell the bolt lock seperate....you have to buy whole dang pulley assy..

    and these get broken often...from too much force..

    what happens is someone tries to loosen that screw without first loosening that pulley lock bolt..

    because of all the machining on that bolt......it sheers fairly easy....

    and that super long screw isnt much better....but better to break it instead of the lock bolt...
    at least you can buy one of those....

    Yes that is it. Unfortunately I’m only looking to spend a few bucks on the “adjuster nut” because I just pressed a brand new Nachi bearing into the pulley. Looks like I might be torching and PB blasting the snapped bolt out of the old adjuster nut.

    Darn. Life would be easier if they sold that separately.
