The power steering belt needs to be replaced so how do i go about removing the 2 other belts? I looked at getting the first one off but i cant figure how to loosen it.

Thanks

this is how you remove the alternator belt.

Loosen the bolt going though the alternator and engine hoist bracket.

there should be a 10mm bolt attached to the alternator where there will be a tensioner, loosen it . then there should be a 8mm bolt on the tensioner, unscrew it until you can move the alternator down enough to pop the belt off.

dude, I just told you.... (post #2)

thats how you get the first belt off.

Read it. go do it.

Thats not the first belt. The first belt comes from the crank pulley to the ? pulley, then to a tensioner pulley in the middle above the 2.

oops my mistake.

from Harmonic balancer, to the A/C compressor..

loosen the 14MM bolt in the middle of the Pulley, and loosen the top 14MM bolt above the pulley, loosen the top bolt as much as needed to get it out, very simple
