Default 94 GT Idler pulley help

Ok, I work in a shop, and have a good customers 94 GT in here for a squeak.
It was determined the Idler pulley is the cause of this.
We typically use local parts suppliers, and dealers when certain things not available.

Well our usual sources do not list an idler pulley for this car, just a tensioner pulley.
The dealer wants almost 400 bucks for the bracket assembly in which I was told the only way its sold.


So I am here asking you guys, any options I can take? $15 pulley, or $400 bracket assembly.

I can try a junk yard, this was the customers suggestion, I usually don't like going that route.

All ideas welcome!

I used to be able to get just the bearing for certain applications a while back. Knock out the old and and knock in the new one. There is usually a # on the bearing. Not sure if this is possible in your case but it's an idea to look into.

I just put one on my 94, i got one at autozone for $30. Sometimes on those you cant take the seal out of the bearing and pack it with grease. Hope that helps.

I know for a fact that Advance Autoparts has it. My store keeps it in stock. I was considering buying new pullies when I put my engine together
