Phil:

they should all turn with no grinding, binding, or roughness. Only AC pulley will spin freely as it's not connected to anything with the clutch non-energized. The fan bearing should be almost as free, but will likely have more drag and not spin that much. If it takes any appreciable effor to turn the fan bearing, it's likely shot as it only holds the fan up. The water pump is separate.

WP and PS pump will NOT freewheel as they are working at their normal "job" -- pumping PS fluid and water.

Again, any roughness, binding, or lateral play means replace.

I would also replace the belt -- a bad belt can sound like a bad journal bearing!
