solutions to throwing belts

[Boggen Joe]

I use to went to Dayco belts, and short as I could. I haven't thrown a belt in over a year, and I spin 7000 rpm

[Wicked Willys Fab]

I ran a acc. pulley on the backside of the belt to keep tension on it never threw it after that

Hope this helps you out

Whered u find that small pulley at

[Wicked Willys Fab]

Auto parts store can't remember the part number but seems like it was for a ford ranger I'll look around and see if I can find the box I know I have it - you will have to cut a spacer or use some washers to line it up

[hollywoodhillbilly]

And you just bolt it to the head?

Couldn't find the box for it - the factory alternator lower bracket has a hole in it that's what I used

mine kept throwing the power steering belt so i found a larger pulley and cut the outer portions of it off and welded them to the outer edge of my existing pulley which made the pulley about an inch deep, couldn't throw the belt if i wanted to now.
