Used A/C belt tensioning pulley with new bearing. Ford standardized some of the brackets starting in 1968. This adjustable bracket and pulley was used on all 1968-69 390 / 428CJ engines and 1968 289 and 302 engines after 3/1/1968. Additionally it was on 1969 351W engines as well. This adjustable tensioner pulley is identified by having the small bearing pulley. Same as the DOAZ-8678-C adjustable idler pulley only with a big bearing pulley.
*Note* All new bearings will have a slight bit of play in them. This is by design, by the manufactures. We have asked the suppliers, and the answer is to allow for possible heat expansion. Even the "Koyo" branded ones, which were used starting in 1968, now have an ever so slight amount of play.
We also offer a bearing replacement service to rebuild your adjustable idler pulley, see item 27539.
