Default Idler Pully Bearing

Did a search and couldn't find what I'm looking for.
My Idler pully is about to bite it. Went to the local auto parts place and it's about $40 for a new one. From China no less. Great. Sucks to be Canadian sometimes.
Anyways I know some of you have probably done this if your as cheap as I am. That damn bearing is only pressed in and I'll bet it's a $3.00 timkin unit.
Has anyone else done it and have the bearing number?
98 Sport 4.0L w/ac
Thanks!!!!

A good counterman can run the numbers on the bearing itself, if you clean it up and take it in.

Last time I had to get one, it was a Timken #203FF - but that was years ago, and that was for a RENIX. However, it's the work of about five minutes to press one over, if you have a bench vise, a socket big enough for the old bearing to fall into, and a deep socket just small enough to pass through the hole (you want it as close to the OD of the bearing as possible, without going over. If you're so inclined, measure the OD of the bearing with a caliper and try to get within .010-.020" of it with the socket...)
