I had to by a new altanator today after the nut and alt. pulley fell off. I need the diagram of how to put the belt back on because I have way too much slack left over. Also the belt lenght if you know it off hand thanks. This is a 1995 5.0.

Dont freak if you notice you have an idler pulley where the tensioner is in that above-pic. And your tensioner is then between the alt pulley and water pump pulley (or between the alt pulley and smog pump pulley, depending upon if you have the tensioner loaded or not).

The belt routing is still the same AFAIR.

Good luck.
 
i would also like to add that if you have a factory oil cooler that going from the water pump directly to the ac compressor is not possible due to the hard lines for the cooler. if you have an oil cooler you will need to go from the water pump to around the idler then down to the ac compressor.
 
I have an idle pulley between the alt. and a/c pullies. But i have the tensioner pulley between the alt. and water pump pullies does that change the way i put the belt on any?

the diagrams shown are for a fox body which have a very different pulley setup than we do. but if you kinda just match it up, it should get you ballpark.
