Can some one tell me how the accessories are laid out on a FJ60 with a 2F and air conditioning? And how do the belts run? Are there two belts for the water pump shiv?

I wonder what size the crank to water pump belt is for the Canadian spec?
There isn't one. The belt also goes to either the alternator or power steering pump. There isn't a belt for just the crank and water pump - there would be no way to tension the belt.
Man I have been looking for the answer to my question. Changing out head gasket and radiator and want to put new water pump on during it all but see the pump ran to the crank and no obvious way to adjust it. any idea what happened. I have never had on road since I owned it and want to get it right while all tore downThere isn't one. The belt also goes to either the alternator or power steering pump. There isn't a belt for just the crank and water pump - there would be no way to tension the belt.
Got a follow-up question to this thread. I had trouble finding the right belts for my '83 FJ60 when I bought it a year ago, so I had them replaced at a shop recently. Now I have a squealing noise in the power steering belt at extreme right and left, and assumed the belt just stretched a little and needs to be tightened up. However, upon closer look I see that the belt configuration isn't right, and that's why the proper belts didn't fit in the first place. A PO has put a spacer in the alternator bracket so that it sits backward a little further and no longer lines up with the power steering pump. So there is one belt for the alternator and another for power steering.
I have learned the hard way (a couple times) that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. However...I want to correct it the right way, by restoring the original configuration, rather than overtightening something that ain't lined up right anyway.
Any thoughts on why a PO would do something like this and if there is anything else to consider before putting it back to original?

Thank you, this is super helpful. All the smog stuff is removed so I guess this was a workaround by PO.the alt should line up with the PS
you need a smog pump eliminator assembly or a gutted smog pump.
the alt/PS belt does not go to the water pump
the smog pump belt goes to the waterpump
the current PS belt is too narrow
Yep, I noticed that crack, too.My guess is they got a new/reman alternator at some point and it wasn’t the correct one and they made it work however they could (bottom mounting ears are different depending on year). That lower rear ear looks cracked/broken.
If you decide you need the air pump to get belts right, I’ve got a gutted and capped smog pump from my 87 that’s yours for the cost of shipping if you want it. Got a little power steering fluid on it but didn’t make any noises before I removed it.
