Just so there is no confusion, On the GMC's, we have a single belt for the
alternator and another belt that goes to the water pump-AC compressor. How
do I know? I changed out about a dozen alternator belts going 400 miles
before I thought it out. Started and ran the generator to keep the truck
battery charged. The alternator belts were failing because the alternator
support arm had been left off after a repair. Oh for a nail, a shoe, a
horse, a battle and then the war.

By the way, I could change out that belt in less than 3 minutes and be back
on the road. LOL.
