A Different Belt Question

[1956_4x4]

I have removed the #1 (driver's side) alternator from my truck and converted to a 12 volt system. The truck has run fine for the past year, but I'd like to install a second belt to the crank/power steering pump/water pump. Does anyone happen to have a belt number to accomplish this?

Sure did, but no luck. I also did a search and found a lot of info on belts, but nothing about installing a belt after deleting the left alternator. I could try the string method, but I want to get the "Gatorback" belt and they are a special order item around here.

Also, I want to put a plug in for the "Gatorback" belts. If you are having a problem of alternator belt squeal upon start-up, these things seem to solve the problem. A 15485 fits the passenger side alternator on the 6.2...

smitty, you would be best to take a piece of string and measure that, then check the length with a stock belt. If it fits correctly then order the gatorback belt of the same size.
