are the bondo belts that come with the AFX UDP any good, do they hold up or should i get diffrent belts, if so which ones??

Way to many mods to list!

Some people have had good luck with them, some havn't. But as long as you keep them tighened by checking the belts about every week for the first month, you shouldn't have any problems w/ them.
Check out vegasdsmr's site for product numbers of other brands of belts if you would like to get a different brand.

No, they're crap belts... but yes use them unless U really want 2 spend the $$$. They're really EZ 2 put on/take off, just make sure the tension is tight & U use belt dressing. I've been running on mine 4 nearly 2 months w/out a squeak. U should probably retighten them after a week or so, as they will stretch out a little.

do they break or do they just squeak, im putting mine on tomorrow and if they do either of the above, ill just get new ones.

i am still runnin the bando belt on my alternator... my ps/ac belt was shredded cuz my udp wasnt on all the way...

as long as they are tight, and the pulley lines up, u shud have no problems with the bando belts... since it is easy to not put the pulley on all the way, or not tighten the belts, the bando belts are subject to break, hence the bad name given to them...

good luck, check my writeup for part #s

I still have the bando alt. belt on too, it seems to be working fine. And basically you can just eyeball it too see if you have it on all the way. Just look over the PS pulley at the udp, and see if they line up.

go to my site... i have a list of mods... the ones that arent on the list are a p&p intake mani, and phelonic spacer...

I didn't want to take the risk so I bought good year gatorgrip belts for my UDP. They are wonderful.
