Actually, the belt it called for was a 51". I tried a 53,54 and a 55....thank God for Farm Supply....I tried the 53 first and I tightened the pulley all the way up, but it wasn't tight enough. So I had to walk back again and get the only one I didn't get before, the 52".....walla it didn't get...
Well, got it all buttoned up.....or so I thought! So all new belts filled the radiator back up and off I go. About 80 miles in I remember that I did not tighten the pulley shaft bolts... Oh boy all that work! So I pull over and luckily they are still there with one of them just barely having a...
Okay, got it loose and the belt on.... But how do I tighten the pulleys without pinching the belt in between the pulleys?

Yes, those are the exact dimensions I got. Sprayed the pulleys with Blaster so hopefully it will loosen! Thanks for the help!

So will it widen the pulley? It's not moving. Should I pull the bolts completely or just real loose? You wouldn't happen to have the dimensions of the alternator belt.? Thank you for the help!

So I loosened the 2 bolts but the pulley doesn't seem to do anything? I'm going to replace the other belt also while I'm here..... Tractor supply to the rescue. The belts are smooth but they Kevlar, good enough to get me home

It looks like I will need to loosen and take the alt belt off also. Great picture.... I hope I got enough tools at harbor to do, lol

Yep, it's a belt. But I'm stuck in bumheck Iowa on a Sunday....
So I'm looking at the motor and it seems the alternator is the Pivot point for all the belts? The compresser is kind of wonky in alignment.

Okay, well I've got about 515 miles down but I think I threw the air compressor belt! I was almost at the end of my day and it sounded and felt like a belt went.....all the gauges looked good....kept an eye on them....but when I stopped for the night and got food I noticed the air assist...
Aleve PM knocks me out for some reason, so two birds with one stone,lol.
I'm giving myself a full week to get back.....Gotta spend a day at the Iowa 80 truck stop! J/K :-D:-D
I might be buying a M105 and we were going to meet in Lone Pine, he is from Bakersfield and it's kind of in the middle.....small world! I would like to have that schedule, thanks.
Well, I will be driving my M35a2 from Mooresville,Indiana to Fallon,Nevada starting Friday June 15th. I'm going to do the Wal-Mart run for the basics....air mattress,sleeping bag and pillow. Oh,and a step ladder,lol. Then next morning, it's to Harbor Freight for basic tools and some...
