    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...

    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! Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    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 Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    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. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
