    Water pump and idler pulley

    So who all has changed either of these out? Went to hope in the truck to head to work this afternoon and what do you know belt popped and wrapped around balancer before i could kill it. Water pump pulley felt like it was about to fall off and idler pulley has side to side play in it. Truck only had around 65k on it and i found several post online about them failing. So if you haven't changed them you might want to keep an eye on them. Just a heads up.
