I was into the belts and wheels yesterday on my '03 Aero Wagon autobox 57.4K
The small ribbed upper idler felt just like new, would not spin free, grease was dampening movement, very little difference VS new idler that I did put in it's place, old --> spare.
The tensioner wheel also felt quite good, as expected.
The central idler [long belt] is dry. Does not spin free as in completely dry, however, as it is slowly turned I can hear the ball bearings tumble. That does not make any sense as the bearings are in a carrier. Suspect, so must be replaced.
Drive belt was in new condition.
