    WTB/ WTT: Unicorn pulley. Non-PS, with AC idler pulley

    Looking to buy one of these.

    I would also be interested in trading one for a pair of Autodramatics door pulls or cups.

    Are you looking for the belt tensioner that takes the place of the power steering pump when you remove the power steering but retain the AC?

    This part (not for sale)?

    Yep, that's the part.

    The KIA part number has dried up now.

    I think I might try the 'short-belt-to-AC; use-shims-to-tighten" method. Having the adjuster there is nice, but really, how often do you adjust the belt tension? ;)

    I couldn't find that guy on facebook, but thanks for the lead.

    I ended up using a shorter belt that goes from the crank to the AC without a tensioner.
    Works great.

    Thanks for all your help. We can close this one up.
