Cox Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) Just got a mechman 240amp alt for my 2009 camry se 4 cylinder. Does anyone know what size belt I need. And also where to get it because none of the auto parts places around me have a selection for anything near my car.

tacomaguy1 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 usually 1/2" or so shorter....I assume it has a smaller pulley? Find out the stock length somewhere online than you can go on any parts site and look up one smaller than that. Gates are nice and they have a website with all the lengths and part numbers Quote Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyDrew Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 The length of your stock belt is in the number printed on the belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDrifter Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 You can also pull your belt off and take it into the store. They'll find it. Then just get one a wee bit shorter Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Bailey Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Hey, I have a 2007 Camry.. Mind telling me how much it cost you for the new Alt, and what size belt you got? New alt is next on my list. Quote Did you get that scar tissue when you got your vagina installed?
