I just replaced the bearings in the idler and tensioner. Simple job, just press in. I think it was around $14.00 each for the bearings.
I also had an O2 sensor fail on a recent trip. It took 2 tries to get the right one! It was a 40 km trip back to a Napa store to get the sensor, twice. Should have taken my old one with me.
Did you grease your kingpins, tie rod and drag link ends? They should be done every oil change.
Good idea to clean the MAF.
Happy Glamping.
PS. Bearings are 6203.

Yes, I greased all suspension before my July 2018 trip from El Paso to CA.
