I have a 89 lx 5.0. I removed the smog pump and now just order the a/c delete braket from ford racing. The braket removes the a/c pump and relocates my P/S pump to where the a/c pump would be. Does any1 no what size belt i would need?


so i removed the smog pump and a/c. moved the p/s pump to where the a/c is.

i want to pick up a belt before the part comes in!


thanks

you can also take a piece of string and go around all the pullys and mark the string then measure it.

i think i needed a 71.5" belt for my FRPP a/c delete, with no smog and UD pullies. if you buy multiple belts, don't run your car with them if you have aluminum pullies unless you're sure its the size you want. remember they will stretch. I have a couple belts that got covered in aluminum and i couldn't take them back afterwards. also make sure to note (see above posted pics) that the belt is run differently when you do this mod

Just string it.


With all the combos of aftermarket pullies and such, it's just easier to use some string
