Quad alt belt squeak


Recommended Posts

Posted

Anybody else have that belt squeak in between gears with quad alts?

It's an 05 burban with the 5.3l, and I'd love to get this shit to stop squeaking. Aftermarket tensioner, or different belt, (I'm using gates green stripe atm), or any real suggestion would be awesome.

Thanks

Bought the bracket or built it yourself? Have a pic of the setup?

Quad alternators I don't have experience with but belt driven superchargers I certainly do. The common issue there is belt wrap/engagement on the pulley. If the belt isn't wrapped around 60/75% of the alternator pulley, may not have enough conact to prevent some squeaking. More tension may shut it up, and fuck up the bearings in the alternators at the same time.

i have squeal with a single alt when i shift fast, unless i revmatch my downshift.. but that makes sense.

May wanna work on better wrap... but with quads.. you're bound to get it unless you go full retard.

Every quad I have heard in real life squeals under full tilt conditions, so if that's all you're talking about I am not sure what to offer for advice. If it squeals a lot more than that, like wet outside, accelerating fast, etc. maybe 1" shorter belt?
