When idler pulley bearings fail!!!

I really like this design. I personally have the pineapple idler and there are a few differences. Both are over engineered but in different ways. The pineapple pulley itself is a beautiful piece using not one but 2 isk (I think) bearings. This is the better of the two by far in this department imo. The Tweakit bracket itself it WAY beefier and puts the pulley in a less obtrusive location for some big single turbo guys, but leads to slightly less water pump pulley contact. I think a new piece with a Pineapple style pulley and a location closer to the Tweakit design would be the best of both worlds. Just my opinion, which nobody asked for lol.
