I don't believe there is an idler pulley on that model, just a tensioner pulley
The idler pulley has nothing to do with the brakes. If the idler pulley is bad it could throw or break a belt, and then your engine will stop.
The A/C belt uses an idler pulley accessed from under the car. That lock nut is in the center of the pulley, and the ajustment bolt is located on the side of the pulley.
In an Inline 6 Jeep engine, the idler pulley is located to the right of the A/C pulley. It is a smooth pulley, not a grooved one.
If you are referring to the Serpentine belt, you loosen no pulley. You simply remove tension from the belt. The tension is applied by the Idler Pulley. Pry the idler back and remove the belt.If you are referring to the Serpentine belt, you loosen no pulley. You simply remove tension from the belt. The tension is applied by the Idler Pulley.

The idler pulley is between the alternator and the A/C compressor.
Remove the belt, then remove the bolt holding in the idler pulley.
Locate the idler pulley and release the tension. Remove old belt and replace it with the new one (there should be a sticker on the underside of the hood or on the radiator housing showing the path for the belt) and re-tighten the idler pulley.
Replace the tensioner assembly as one piece.
Remove the old, damaged idler pulley and replace it with a new one.
== == it is a free pulley that works as a tensioner on any belt bolted to hold or spring loaded An idler pulley usually tensions a belt.. eg supercharger belt is kept taut by its respective idler pulley
