Big time noise from blower or idler pulley

I don't know what bearing is going but after driving 15 to 20 minutes the noise is really bad (even at idle). After cool down there is little or no noise. Has there been a problem with the front bearing in the blower? I think I remember Sauvy having trouble with his. I'm going to pull the belt off this weekend and figure it out. If it's in the Eaton it's a big deal isn't it?$$$$$$$

Make sure it is your blower first. Once I thought my blower bearing was going out(was doing just as you said when it got hot). Took the blower belt off, and it was still there; ended up being the alternator.

BTW; if it is a bearing in the blower snout there is a guy by the name of Casey02L selling a eaton snout on NLOC in the classifieds.

Shadow, let me know if you need help, after you take the blower belt off and you find the source. If it's the Eaton I can replace the bearing for you. Or like Casey said you can by his snout.
