Default What Belt Do I Need???

Hey guys,

Recently i opted to do away with my a/c in my Soarer due to the fact that its cold here and its not my daily driver. But i have hit bump along the way. I have searched and it might just be me, but i can not find the right accessory belt to use while running without my a/c compressor. I have looked search and taking at least 6 different tri[s to the local part stores.Please if any one has info on the matter. please let me in on it..


thanks

Easy problem to fix... Get a tape measure, and secure it to the crank pulley with tape. Then, wrap it around the remaining accessory pulleys. While flexing the tensioner, measure the total length.

There are a number of brands that have different lengths - one of which is close enough to your application. AutoZone or O'Reilly's will have what you need.

I had to search for a while to find the part number, but since I still have the package sitting in the garage I'll go run and check it for you real quick, and edit this post.

EDIT: Since I have the Unorthodox pulleys, my crank pulley is smaller and I have a Gates #K060739. The one you need is a K060747 I do believe.

Trust me... Measure the total length and get it right the first time.
