Rattlle noise

Watz up everybody im new to this forums..and i got a problem with my 98 gtp its making this weird rattle coming from the belt side of the engine can somebody tell me what wrong with it
 


I already got my whole s/c rebuilt and its still doing the loud rattle noise ...idk what it could be also my crank pulley is cracked idk if that is making the noise because i took off motor and s/c belts and turnd on the engine and still making the noise...hopefully you guys can help me out...
 
If the super charger was re-built it should'nt be the coupler, How is the belt tenioner on it ? My guess maybe thats where the rattle is ?
 
Mine did the same too, it was the S/C Tensioner, it had worn out really bad, and was rattling to all hell.

Listen down by the tire/in the wheel well, and see if it's down there, if so, its the crank.
 
Ok ima check on that later on hopefully its the crank pulley..is the crank pulley expensive?? Also is it difficult to change the crank pulley
 


Its maybe 100 or less if you go used.

You need special pulley puller bolts and a spacer which you can get from ZZP, not sure where else.
 
It's kind of a pain to remove the pulley. You can get a puller from ZZP for fairly cheap, or rent one from a parts store. As far as a crank pulley price, cheapest would probably be from a parts store.
 
the kit I got from advance auto parts actually had the correct parts, and you can use a
3" long 3/8's extension as the spacer, works like a charm
 
There got my car running..it was the harmonic balancer that was messed up on my car now it runs great thanks for all your advice really came in handy
