On another topic, how does the Uro guy get to sell parts not in the area designated for selling parts? I haven't posted here in a long time, but seeing this salesperson trying to hock his wares got my ire up.

Get him Gerry!!!
I wouldn’t say it’s a huge labor job.. changing the fan pulley bracket is maybe 30 minutes working at a snail pace. I’ve changed a lot of mb parts that failed way too early due to inherent problems so I’m open to anything that might work better for cheaper.
