[QUOTE="thetool, post: 24439, member: 1534"] The old ones had a bronze bushing inside, the newer setup is nylon, both have o-rings to keep th dirt out. The aluminum arm and the pivot bolt get bent over time, and that makes them sticky too. Then the pulley starts to wobble and wears on one side. I try to talk my customers into replacing the parts from the pulley on down and a new belt. It's just good insurance, seeing what happens if it fails. [/QUOTE]
