Don't know if the belts you are looking for are on this spreadsheet but they may be at the bottom. There should be a sticky with this guys spreadsheet.Screenshot_20201010-135409.jpg

You don't need a power steering belt to drive either so keep on going till you get home. Then worry about it. Not on the side of the road

Yeah I just happen to know my mobile mechanic was close by, we found the belts sizes and are in the process of replacing! Thanks all.

I was able to turn the truck just fine but even at speed it was difficult, and I had a m35 that had no power steering and this was about 2-3 times as hard so got a little nervous!!

Just be glad you did not lose the water pump belt.....

Been there done that on the side of I-10 :-(
You are right about that. That happened to me on my M925 and I was on I10 headed home from a MV display. Towed the truck home.

Old military vehicles
Is not one supposed tp have spares and know everything abut a truck Before
one goes on the road with it.
Not in my world, professionally inspected for safe operation every 6 months and call in the experts when something goes wrong. I am no expert. Preventative maintenance per the manual on the weekends. I’m lucky to have a great mechanic, and have a business to run.

There’s a lot to know! Professionally inspected per the manual for safe operation and mechanically safe and sound for the road. It’s more reliable than most of my past 100,000+ mile vehicles so I treat it as a truck that I use daily, not as something I study and obsess about as a hobby. The more I use it, the more I fix, the more I learn. Safety is my focus with this truck!

Just because it is " professionally inspected" doesn't mean it won't fail. Seen NEW stuff fail on the dyno and road tests. Having "professionally" maintained an old MV, and driven it to the dirt, played 3 or 4 days and driven it home, hundreds of miles, I can tell you, you need to keep the small spares on hand, in the truck. Belts, AT LEAST a hose repair kit, bailing wire, fluids and tools. And have someone operating the vehicle that has a clue as o how to remedy the issue at hand. How much $ does it cost your business to rely on outside help that can be handled in the time it takes the help to arrive?

Just sayin'

Been there, done that.
