I just purchased a A/C elimination kit Ford Motorsport part # FMM8511A50. The kit moves the power steering up to where the A/C compressor used to be. I need to know the part # for the new serpentine belt I have to by. Someone said Goodyear # 4060845. Are the last three digits the length? I heard the belt must be 1/2 inches shorter. Or, do I buy the stock belt for a 1990 mustang w/o A/C? One more question: Do I have to make the power steering hoses longer?

The stock belt is more than 80 inches long, is under 60 inches really what I need?

 

is the a/c the only pulley you have removed or do you have the smog pump off too. if so then it should work with a 72.5 or 73.0.

 

I still have the smog pump...at least for now. Thanks.

 

I removed my smog and A/C at the same time. I used a 73.5" long belt and its kinda snug, which isn't a bad thing.

 

yes the last numbers are typically the length

 

oh, and you won't have to do anything to your power steering hoses. They will work fine as is.

 

how exactly do you remove the ac compressor if it is full of r12?
