Hi all, I am working on a 94 4Runner (manufactured 9/93) with the V6 3VZE motor. The bracket that would look like a water pump has failed and I need any suggestions on where I could pick it up for cheap. New or Used. Toyota only sells it with pulleys and fan attached to the tune of $672!!!!! Way too expensive. I've been told that some people call it a fan bracket, false water pump, fan idler bracket bearing assembly,etc. I just need a new one. Toyota's number is 16307-65040 for reference, all I need is the bearing assembly, no pulleys, no fan. Thanks.

No kidding on this: Try eBay. I have found unbelievable deals there, people who "part out" vehicles list their item there.

I've found lots of it on ebay:
