BJ74 AC belt...

[_Walker_]

Hey all; anyone know the sizing of the AC belt for an 89 BJ74?
Also this may be a stupid question but how the hell do you tighten it up? its squealing like hell when the AC is on and I cant for the life of me figure out how to tighten it without crushing something;


thanks

If you need a new one, take it off and match it up at the shop, the idler and adjuster is below the power steering pump. 14mm bolt

Hey, thanks! Finally got that issue resolved, however ended up making a new one in the meantime,
While trying to get a wrench at said bold I decided to take the power steering belt off to get some more room to move.
However the power steering tensioner was seized to its slider, as a result I broke off the tensioning bolt right where it goes into the tensioner....
Its too deep for me to use any standard extractor, and I'm not sure of tapping it out...
Note: there is still tension on the belt and wracking it with a hammer is doing sweet bugger all to loosining the tensioner...

To make things more interesting I'm going camping in the bush first thing tomorrow with some friends, I'm worried if I pull the whole bracket off k wont have time to get it back on by tomorrow, but at the same time it would be a royal pita if I lost power steering over the weekend



Ideas or suggestions?
