Dude just drive it like it is to a store and ask them for a new p.s. belt. It takes 2 minutes to replace. $12

For my experience it only moves the P.S. and A/C, i spend 2 days with out it, it's a PIA to drive it like that, but it can be done...

I just broke mine last week. PIA to drive on 17's, but you can still get around. Power Steering and AC is all it controls. I called Satan they want 20 for the belt, not bad but you can get for cheaper. It only takes a few minutes to put it on.

I know, i know.. my website is down.

You don't want the part # from the stock belt, as it is longer than the belts that come with the UDP. Call Howell Automotive and ask for the part number, or at least the length, and go by that to buy a new belt.

oh grasshoppa, i hooked up the pimp sheet. complete descriptions, and the part numbers for 5 diff manufacturers of the belts to use with an AFX UDP.

check this, http://seangordon1.tripod.com/udpinstall.html

if that doesnt work, use the link in my sig, and hit the udp install link on the top of the splash page.

You dont have to drop the motor. It goes around 2 tensioners and 2 pulleys. Its self explanatory so tak ea look and you will figure it out.
