What should i do? Replace that one that doesnt spin?

 

Lol. I mean it spins, but just not as smoothly

 

Yep... I'm not even sure why I asked what I did haha

 

Did you try listening with a pipe like in the video to pinpoint the noise.
If it's cheap enough replace both.

 

Lmfao that could be one of the best things ive ever read on here....signature worthy

 

No I didn't listen. The feel was enough for me to decide. I should have listened but oh well. There's one in stock in Matamoras and it's 52$.... headed there now

 

Did you fix it?

EAGLES!!!

 

I'll be burning pallets drinking beer and putting Christmas lights up if you want to swing by. I have a garage also.

 

Your welcome also but your 2hrs away.

 

Hey guys. Yeah it's fixed, also installed a new belt. Now I have a trail spare just in case. I picked the correct pulley. Getting the new serpentine belt on was tougher than taking the old one off AND replacing the pulley.

 

Also dropped in my new grille

 

Nice

 

I’d replace them all... lost two pullys on the way back from Moab last time. Simple enough to replace, just had to wait for the truck to cool down enough to work on it.

 

Had all of mine replaced including Serpentine belt, when they did my frame replacement.

 

I carry new pulleys and belt. Just in case.

 

I should get a serpentine belt spare. I have my old pulleys, they seem to be OK for spares.

 

Yeah actually before I went to windrock I replaced a pulley that wasn't really bad had a tiny bit of play but couldn't feel anything and once it cooled down the play was gone but I swapped it. When I put the belt back on it must've been off a rib because it cut the last rib off the belt so I put the new one on and kept the pulley and belt as spares.

 

Freaky....

I've worked in both Reamstown and Leola for most of my life. DORMA and PDQ if anyone cares.

 

yeah I should have done the other pulleys, but I didn't... I replaced the belt though. truck has just under 38K miles. never thought a pulley would be an issue yet.
On the topic of my grille, it came out great. I would have loved to buy one from you and support a local small business TW fellow, but I have friends who do body work and I got it done verrrry cheap. Otherwise you would have had my money. I push everyone I can towards your grilles though in an attempt to make up for making my own!!

My truck is going for the frame inspection on Tuesday morning. I am also getting the leaf spring recall done I think. The guy said he is ordering the parts for the lifted truck version of the recall, whatever that means. I hope they put my AAL back on. I highly doubt I will qualify for a new frame. When I installed all the armor, all I saw was surface rust. Toyota will most likely be coating my frame. I have seen some pictures on whatever tacoma facebook group I am on about people getting their frames sprayed. It's a shit-show of overspray everywhere. I hope this dealer doesn't do a crap job. I won't be taking the truck and will have them clean it.

I will have a loaner, hoping it a new tacoma.

I saved the "old" serpentine belt. It had zero cracks or frays or anything. it's now under my driver seat for a spare. Should I bother saving the pulley for an emergency spare? it had some play and sounded terrible.
