power steering delete and short belt routing?

matt cook · 07-23-2001, 02:05 PM

I am looking to switch to manual steering and am wondering how to run a short belt. The car does not have AC, so I would just be running water pump,crank,alt and smog pump?

thanks

I have a short serpentine belt that skips ac/ps/smog pump. I don't know the ID on the belt, I could check if you want. It hits the tensioner from the other side so it is kind of strange. Works great, and I dind't need to purchase any other brackets to delete ac, and ps. If you can live with out the smog pump running for a while then I will get you the belt number.

If you have trouble finding the perfect fitting belt,it is possible to fabricate your alternator to being adjustable.You just need a piece of steel bar with a 3/8 inch slot in it and a spacer to take-up the offset.
