Default Looking for Gates K061247 belt

Anyone know of anyplace stocking these? I want a back up for my car.

So far I can't find it online. I've read that it has to be ordered from the Gates rep.

Maybe one of our site sponsors carries them? I think there would be a bit of business for someone that did. Jared are you listening?

one of our crew members posted
this.....

"I got mine from NAPA auto parts for $42. It's part # K061247
and if they give you problems tell them it's in their Kentucky
distribution plant or have them call Laura at gates..."

good luck and let us know if you find
a good, reliable source.

I looked far and wide for that part number. The only place I found it was at a local (350miles away) Ford Racing dealer. For about $120CDN...

Let me know if the Napa thing works!

GROUP BUY GROUP BUY.....

I will sign up to buy one. I wanted an extra for a while, but havent gotten one. I called a few parts shop locally and told them the part number and to call Gates directly and they blew me off. Too much work I guess

I have about 14k miles on my original Whipple belt with no issues.

Dont know if it helps or not but I love my Thumprr tensioner too. Helps me sleep at night. Bent tensioner = Royal PITA.

I did some research on this. Found a speed shop in Michigan that had 3 and decided not to carry them anymore. I bought them for $120.

Today I found this:

http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...0%201&comp=LRS

They are a mustangforums vendor. I've bought from them before, will buy from them again. Good service, good people. I don't know what belt is being supplied. Just thought I'd pass the info along for anyone who is interested.

They are a bit hard to find, but a small parts store in my area can get them for about $36, plus $10 for the shipping. I don't know if they will shipped them to your location, but you can try. The name of the shop is Eastover Auto Supply in Oxon Hill, Maryland. Their phone number is 301-839-5772. Ask for Paul or Wayne, if they need help remembering tell them the guy with the orange and black Mustang special ordered them. The part number is K061247. I paid $86.09, total, for two.
