If your referring to the idler pulley on the serp belt, yes. I have the bearing.
I use a SKF bearing filled with Krytox grease. This grease out performs standard hydrocarbon grease by 400˚F and triple the load bearing. grease bonds to surfaces to protect them and the bearing should last for about 5 years or more without needing a re-pack.
Bearing alone with Grease: $79
re-packs -$17.00
I have had great success with the grease in all my idler pulleys I have packed for the 164 and other vehicles.
I guarantee the bearing will not fail. If it does in the first year I will replace it. I still may depending on the problem after the 1st year.
