skittlesRgood Posted February 13, 2010 Report Posted February 13, 2010 how much smaller of a belt do i need to get for my HO alt? i never had a problem with it slipping but after some fun in the mud it started to scream lol. anyways, i thought i remembered some one saying to just go .5" smaller to counteract the smaller pully but i just wanted to make sure. the length of my belt is 88.6", 6 ribs, i think .82" wide. 06 buick rendezvous cxl 3.5L if anyone wants to look it up. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

newls1 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Posted February 13, 2010 your stock belt is a GATES PART # K060888..... So that would be 88.8" long. Walk into a part store, pick up what looks to be a somewhat smart person (Good luck) and ask what the next step DOWN IN SIZE WOULD BE. I'm thinking a GATES PART # k060882, but that is a little more then a 1/2 loss. There might be a "LESSER" loss belt... I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny
skittlesRgood Posted February 13, 2010 Author Report Posted February 13, 2010 ok, i gotcha. so .5" is normaly enough?

skittlesRgood Posted February 13, 2010 Author Report Posted February 13, 2010 ok, i went out and got a k060878. the package on the k060888 said it was just over 89". the 878 is 88 3/8". it was hard to reach everything with all the 1/0 wire in the way but it was actualy one of the easiest things ive changed on my car. the belt isnt slipping anymore, not that i can hear anyway, so im happy. wonder if my voltage will be a little better now too. thanks newls, you helped me pick the right one.
