Jay, Listening to your video twice I didn't hear anything sounding like a bad bearing noise. Could it possibly be the belt?
Im stumped then. it doesnt do it all the time, especially in the morning or first start up. Doesnt make the sound until the Fj is warmed up and has been driven for a bit. I looked at all the pulleys and I cant see any wobling or worn. I did see today some light powdery dust like road salt on one of them. I just bought the Fj so IDK what was replaced beforehand (nothing on carfax). Thanks for all the help!

PS. So it is safe to try the belt dressing as a test?
