1999 Dodge Dakota Idler Pulley Replacement (3.9L V-6 Magnum) 

Thankyou so much. I have a squeak that is intermittent and I've been working on this truck for months now. I thought "what now" cause I'm tired of bringing it to the shop for everything i can't figure out. Happy to see something I can take care of in 30 min on my next free day.

this video helped me install mine as i really needed to see your attaching bolts on this particular part,by the way,when you put a new compressor on be damn sure to install the fan shroud as that is what wipes the heat off the radiator,the radiators aren't too large anyway,if yours is missing that explains why your compressor went out,it overheated,thanks again for the pictures

Hey, Marcus. I just came home with the idler pulley on my Dakota screaming. You could see it hanging cockeyed in there and you know it's gotta be replaced. I Googled the job and got your video. Good, clear visuals and excellent instructions. Tomorrow when I go out to fix this bad boy, I'm going to have you sitting on my shoulder and it should go pretty darned easy. Thanks a million for this video.

Bro!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this!!! You just saved me spending all kinds of money

Mine is just squeaking, but it will get to that point eventually. Thanks for showing the process.

Gotta do this on my 97 dakota

Hey man, nice video. I had to eeplace6the water pump amd noticed my pulley not tracking right, I thought I was missing a washer for the rear side of the pulley. But I guess it was installed cockeyed. I'm on it now thanks again!

Thank you for you video ,I need to do that to my dakota. This will help me a lot thanks man

Nice instructional video. I once had a bearing lose some of its balls on a snowblower impeller bearing. Like you, the engines noise hid any bearing noise. The tip off was when sparks were coming out of the chute, as the impeller was rubbing the housing. I have had Toyota pickups and a 99 4runner. Those vehicles and the cars I have had over the years and cars of folks I have helped have had plastic fans. I did not think metal fans were still used anymore. I guess I don't get under enough hoods.

Thanks for the vid really helpful 👍

It looks like the Torque rating for that bolt is 33ftbs

Thanks. About to do this.

Very informative, thank you.

Lol, there's your problem

Great video! I have the same truck. I need to change the harmonic balancer. Do I need to remove the fan for that?

How did you do the a/c setup?
