Aftermarket Air 69 Dart 340-6pak
i keep throwing compressor belts. well, keep turning them inside out and throwing them.
checked pulley spacing, alignemnet in all planes, etc. still throwing them. tried different belt tensions, different belts. no luck.
and to top it all off, i destroyed my power steering/alt belt as well. so its not looking like i did something right compared to your success.
whats the deal? my car is now completely unreliable, and i cant figure out why. everything lines up, and shoudl be working properly!!

ok, i tried setting mine up just like yours. its not working. the oly difference i can see is that your compressor mount bracket is slap up against your compressor ear, whereas mine has some space.thats right , no power steer . This is a right hand drive Australian Valiant which is the same more or less as a 67 dodge dart , not sure thatll make a difference ( i doubt it)
i fitted the sanden pump to where the alternator normally lives because that head is further back to give more room , then swapped the alternator to the other side .
as the air con pump is as far back as possible i then used that as a start point to line all the other pulleys up . then it just a case of getting the right pulleys and spacing them out to get everything to line up.
the brackets for everything were standard but modified alternator ones exept the alternator bracket which i made as were the spacers
see if these pics help
cheers
