bearing that the clutch fan spins on, replacement and part #?
im having trouble finding the bearing for the clutch fan pulley. i grabbed the entire a/c bracket off the wrong year jeep at the junkyard and cant swap stuff over since my a/c pump doesnt bolt up the same. mine is a 89 i have pressed out the bearing and shaft on mine but the shaft looks bent. how do you guys usually deal with these going bad?

I got one from a junk yard. But I don't have AC. I used a delete bracket. Just make sure you get one from a similar year if you want the AC to bolt up right

Find a junk yard part, press it out and into yours. I tossed mine and went to electric fans. I would offer to ship it to you but I messed it up getting it out.

i paid $9.50 today. still got the same noise. im stumped it sounds like a bad waterpump but no leaks no shaft play.ran motor without clutch fan same noise so its not the fan. ran it without the belt period and no noise so its not the balancer. its possible its the new part too but it could be the pump , alt, or a/c pump or ps pump but it sounds like around water pump, i get a light chirppy sound at idle and worse at 2000 rpm

Possibly the bearing in the water pump going out. Or the idler bearing. Take the belt off and turn each pulley by hand and feel it. It should be smooth.
