Yeah I need to install that. Since i live in Northern California, I think I can get away with replacing the stock one. Besides I do not think the 20x10" that I got will fit in there with the stock one.
If you remove the black plastic belt cover(two 10 mm bolts), you can see the alt/ps belt more easily.
You MUST loosen the 12mm nut on the adjusting pulley, directly below the PS pulley, and the you can turn the PS/ALT adjusting bolt counter clockwise to back off the adjustment.
If you are changing both belts, the AC belt has a 12mm locknut, under the 12mm bolt the adjuster arm pivots on, and a 17mm nut cast into the adjuster, that you twist to adjust that belt.


I have some pictures in my locker if that helps. Tom.
