Can anyone tell me the size or a part number for a non-AC serpentine belt for my 93 JGC 5.2L? I don't want to remove the A/C compressor yet and just need to bypass it for now. Thanks!

Hey Mark. This is from crazy dude2500 on JEEPForum:
Replacement Serpentine Belt for 5.2 WITHOUT AC
"i have the part # for it so you wont need the string No A/C Fan Belt Part No: 070825 (83" 7 Groove)
keep im mind that some parts store's are different so its a groove and 83'' long ^"

 

Thanks, Ol Blue. I'll give it a shot and let you know how it works out.

 

You're welcome. Let me know how it works out.

 

I was given a full size replacement belt for free so I'm going to hold off for now on the A/C delete. Somebody else is going to have to chime in as whether the 83" belt is the correct length for an A/C delete. Thanks for the info though!

Two tips for other shade tree mechanics:
1 - Make da#% sure the new power steering pulley is exactly the same offset as the original. If not, you end up with half of your $40 serpentine belt shredded!

2 - Do NOT hit the new power steering pulley with a hammer/socket to free the stuck bolt used to press it on, the shaft WILL blow out the back side of the pump - $70 mistake.
