umm yea i happened to be lookn under my hood the other day lookn at my fuses...oh and i noticed that my fuse box cover is gon, i'll have to see if ford can get me one....any who, back on track

i happen to look down, and i can see daylight through my belt through a bunch little tiny holes.. i was like oh daaam..


so yea, ummm is it time to retire my belt

 

Yes.

 

righty-O

 

Is it the main belt? Mine is crackin up.

 

There are no "secondary" belts.

 

well theres the Centro-exilary secondary power unit belt, but usualy lasts a while

 

Well isnt the ac belt seperate?

 

nada

 

wheres a good place to find a gator-back? any auto place? also anyone have the # off hand (3.0)

 

Thanks for correcting me! Hah..i guess that's what i get for not lookin!

 

haha no prob man..

 

When I needed to replace my serpentine belt; I went to the Goodyear website http://www.goodyearbeltsandhose.com/...tCarSearch.jsp
where I looked up the belt size by plugging in the year, make, model and engine.
They also have a store locator http://www.goodyearbeltsandhose.com/...buy/index.html
where your plug in you Zipcode.

OR 4x4

 

I need to get mine replaced soon also, it makes a high pitch squeaking noise for some reason, not slipping or squealing..just a small little squeaking noise

Rocky

 

mine squeaks when and after im in the mud but i guess that is normal

 

Auto Zone carries Gatorback belts...should be around $25.

 

that squeak is yer idler pulley going to hell..mines crap, there all crap

 

it can also be a belt. but yes it most likely is both belt and ilder or tensor pulley

 

I have to replace my belt but I already have the new one.

 

yea.. id really like to do underdrive and get the new size belt and get that done... but i dont have the money to drop on that... also like to do e-fan

 

OKay, instead of making a new topic, I'll Hijack this.

I got my truck washed last Sunday, and it came out sqeaking up a storm after the underbody wash (Mi. Boys will appreciate that ). ANyways, I got the belt good with the Anti-Sqeak spray (the name escapes me right now), and it would go away, then come right back, but when it was gone, a definate 'shhhhhhhh' sound was present. (say it outloud and you'll get the noise). So I got a new belt, and havent put it in yet (Damn weather!). I also bought a Idler Pulley, but was wondering if that was likely the problem before I put it on (so I can return it if not needed). Its goofy that it came on only after the was though, huh?

Anyone?
