supercharger idler pulley replacement options?
I took my idler pulley off because it was rattling and loose, assuming that I would just replace the bearing... turns out that the pulley itself is shot. The area where the bearing seats in the pulley is chewed up and loose, the bearing was fine. For whatever reason my pulley doesn't have the steel sleeve holding the bearing (as I've seen in other's bearing replacement pics on here), the bearing sits directly in the pulley. Anyone else experience this problem?
As I refuse to pay $350 for the MB part, what are the other replacement options? ASP? ??
Thanks kindly.

There is a great group buy going on, it's on a different forum and I don't think Internet Brands aka MBWorld allows me to post the link. If a mod sees this post, please chime in if we are allowed to do that.
You could try a google search. Key words would be something like "ASP pulley group buy planet". You wouldn't want to limit yourself.
