Default Continental gatorback serpentine belts
Hey guys, I have a 2001 XJ and wanted to know if anyone knew the part number for the continental gatorback belt for my year. The vehicle chart thing on Amazon isn't giving me decisive answers. Thanks.

Would you happen to know what the continental belt part number is. The Amazon listings don't include that measurement.

It's #4060950 but it's cheaper at Rock Auto.

But, I have prime 2 day shipping. Thanks for the link, I was pretty sure that was the number since I looked around after I first posted, but you helped assure me it was the right one.

Actually, Goodyear is the manufacturer of Gatorback belts.

Yes, but as I have seen, Goodyear gatorback belts are now being rebranded under the Continental Elite name, so I figured I would use that name instead, just in case the belt part number were different.

True story! Just purchased one myself. The Gatorback is now being sold under the Continental name. Rock Auto even has a video about it if you pull up that part number.

Thanks for all the help guys. I installed my continental (Goodyear Gatorback) belt yesterday and it immediately alleviated my belt "squeak". Well worth the money.
