Hey boys,

I've been in full lurker mode for a quite while, but don't worry, I've been keeping an eye on your shenanigans. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/monkeydance.gif)

My serpentine belt on the V8 was about 3 years old, so while I was tweaking a few things, I decided I might as well replace that while I was underneath. Well, that little bit of preventative maintance bit me right in the ass, as the new belt shreaded at about 6k rpm and wrapped itself around every possible pulley in the assembly and ate up the 2 nylon tensioner pulleys. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

I love the crew at Renegade, but as usual, my emails to them have gone unanswered, so I am in a jam trying to source some replacements.
Anybody have any idears? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Toast, I didn't know you were with Renegade (?). Melba-Toast, now that's funny. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) (I thought I sent it from home, but it might have been a work email account I sent my Q from. I know for sure I sent a wiring Q from this account in the last month or two that was also unanswered)

Anyway, thankfully I was finally able to get a guy at my genuinely friendly LAPS to open a few dozen boxes and we were able to find a perfect match. I just came in from the shop and putting my baby back together and she is purring like a kitten.

I would like to know what is this "alignment checking" of which you speak? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Seriously, I didn't know such a thing needed to be done. What is the proper way to do that? I've still got a little cold squeak.
