Kleeman pulleys

There is a pulley set for an E55 on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

my friend wants to buy it for his 55, the seller says its a Kleeman set. The pulleys have MB part numbers, anyone know if this is right? If figured if it was a Kleeman part there wouldnt be MB part numbers on it.

Seriously dude....this guy has been selling this for weeks now. I asked him some questions a week or so ago and he was an ultra d)(*ck head to me.

Might be legit...might not. He won't show you any proof it's from Kleeman...he already nastily told me that.

I got spooked and said screw it. Also if the unit is warped or out of round...you are gonna screw up the beast big time A K A...real warranty problems too.

If I was gonna make the call...I say it's some bubba that is whipping these up in his garage or something.

Don't buy it.. Pulleys are not something you want to mess around with and purchase from someone you dont know.

Yeah I got a bad vide from the guy. In the pictures the pulleys look awful beat up..
Kleeman and Renntech sure are proud of their pulleys, $2000 is steep! I bought smaller pulleys for my Vortech for $80!! With a star comes the dollar sign

Cory at Kleemann has viewed the pics and confirmed that those are not Kleemann pulleys.

The seller says they are not Renntech, but Kleeman. I guess he is using Renntechs name as a "keyword" to attract buyers.

This pulley is NOT a KLEEMANN pulley. We do not cross drill, nor are we WELDING on the OE pulley mere millimeters from the rubber damper. This looks home made and I encourage you to all use your good sense to steer clear of it.

Sup Victor, how are you doing? People usually do this, just so that is pushes more views and it shows up on other searches. For instance, if you typed in RENNtech in the ebaymotors.com search field, this auction would show up.

Atleast, the individual who is searching for RENNtech products will see this auction, & will hopefully click on it.

Hey RRevolution,

Makes sense.. But, he shouldnt advertise Renntech on there if they aren't.. That's false advertising as far as I am concerned.

I'm good. Got my hands full with a couple of E55 projects right now. How are you doing? Haven't seen you around lately.

Haha, I guess you forgot my name, it's Rush. Yeah, just been pretty busy with school lately. Did you ever get your hands on an exhaust for your AMG?

Sorry Rush.. Yeah. I forgot. :o

Nope. Dont have an exhaust yet.. I am still waiting for you to come to your senses and give me a REALLY good price on that slightly used Eisennman race exhaust.
