Rodbolt----many engines with serpintine belts dont use bolt on drive pullys. The groves for the belt are cut right into the outer ring on the balancer/damper.

Re: Stupid TRUCK trick

Like lark2004 said timing belt drive assemblies also use these type bearings in tensioners and idler pullys. So dont opt for the CHEAP repair. Change "ALL" timing belt drive componants. Waterpump also if driven by timing belt.
