When I replaced my serpentine belt....I didn't have that noise or wobble when I've checked my ac and steering pump....including alternator.

I think you're bearings are gone.....

Sorry not much help.

I have squezed on all the parts in the box, and it looks good for the price, 1/3 of what i had to pay from the lokal shop. Now im just waiting for the parts 😄

Im looking at realoem.com for the valley pan gasket. But it seems that the gasket only sells with the cap?!? Anyone just found the gasket?

The valley pan gasket comes attached to the cap so you have to purchase this to repair/replace. You do not need the plastic cover on the cooling tray you just reuse the one from your engine. Some people make their own gasket but often end up getting some leaks and then go back and redo/replace.
