Hello,
I’m putting together the front accessory drive from an Explorer on a 351w. I’m am using the WH Saginaw Power Steering Pump that also uses an idler pulley on the pump side. Can anyone give me a part number for the complete pulley,washers and mounting bolt. A Napa or O’Reilly’s part number would great. Thank you in advance.

Is the one on your existing Explorer setup no good anymore? Or just non-existent perhaps (judging by the fact that you need the bolt and washer too) so you need it all?
I don't have the numbers because they're part of the Explorer parts usually, but there was a discussion here a few years ago about the two different styles of pulley and bolt that may have come with your Explorer parts.
Not sure, but I do think part numbers were discussed. I'll see if I can find the discussion, but I did not save it so am just going to google it.

In a pinch your typical auto parts store may have everything you need. I'm sure the bolt is not a commonly replaced item, but there may be listings anyway.

Good luck.

All I have is the Explorer alternator mount with that idler. That’s what brings me to looking for an idler that will fit your kit. I found the thread with the two different pulleys. The reason I asked for a Napa or O’Reilly’s part numbers is to counter act the deer in the head lights look I got at both places. I did get a Gates 38008 idler from O’Reilly’s but no mounting hardware. I couldn’t figure out a good way to mount it. That is what prompted my post.

I got a new idler from Rock auto. It came with the hardware. Just search for an explorer with 5.0
