What is the round hub that goes on the water pump called (it's the pulley the belts go on that drive the water pump). I bent mine the other day, and thought I fixed it by putting washers between the pulley and the water pump (to space it out from the pump a little) and it apparently didn't like the washers as it pretty much came apart today. I need to know what it's called and does anyone know where to get one (I've looked at 4wd and quaratec, but don't know what the thing is called).
water pump pulley?

Alright, my water pump pulley disintigrated couple days ago, and this morning I went out to take everything back apart until the new pulley gets here. I put the pulley back up on the water pump and even without the back side of the pwr steering belt groove, the pulley is still contatcting the water pump. Now I'm wondering if I got a pump that's out of spec (of course like a dumbass I threw the old one out when the new one seemed to be working ok). I got the new pump put on, and after trying to run the jeep realized the pulley was hitting the housing, so I tried to put washers between the pulley and the water pump to space it out where it wouldn't contatct the housing again. That seemed to work, but after about 45-50 miles I hear this awful noise from up front, and the back side of the pulley has seperated from the rest of the pulley. I guess I'll have to wait until my new pulley gets here to be sure (I thought the old one was bent a little and that's why it was contacting the housing), but now I dont' think quadratec sent me the right water pump (or sent me one with a short fan/ pulley shaft). Any suggestions here on what to look at?
