mine just started as well. i'm going to pull the bracket and try and get the bearing out... if not i will cut the end off and run a different belt and get a electric fan.

This may be what you are looking for (ebay). The bracket part number is 53011002 from 96 to 99 (that's all I checked). There's a thread on NAXJA about the bearing replacement.

my local dealer didn't have the hub. i asked if they could locate one and overnight it to me and they said if it isn't in one of "their" warehouses they can't get it. i called jeep and they forwarded me to a dealer in new Hampshire, i think they were called lambert? anyways the part was $200 and i paid $100 to have it overnight shipped to me. so it cost me $300. it fixed my squeak. the $200 surprised me after reading this thread.

Probably right. That's a decent option in the event that the hub bearing supply goes south. I'm sure it would be cheaper than replacing the actual bracket, given the price tag. I think the replacement hub bearing is probably the cheapest option though.

Ok the pulley that holds my fan clutch is squeaking very badly and the belt keeps trying to run off the pulley. I read in my manual that its called the "Fan Bearing Hub" I cant find that part anywhere on the Internet! Maybe it goes by a different name? Does anyone know where I can get one or do I have to replace the entire bracket assembly the pulley is on? If so what is it called and where in the world can I get one at. ANy help would be greatly appreciated!!
