whats the better aux belt set up on a cossie? twin belt or multi rib?
i see there is 2 different set ups of aux belts that the cossies came with on various models etc
a 2 belt system for water pump and power steering etc and a multi rib single belt?
whats the better option?

thanks Marc

just finding my feet
there is a reason why cars dont generally have crappy toothed belts on em anymore...... your telling me you dont miss the "SQUEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKK" in the rain pulling out of corners that used to happen,,,,,, then SNAP
poly V is def the best option, more grip and longer life too

Yes thats correct at sustained rpm ( 8k+) the Power Steering belt would turn over & hit the cooling belt, we ran without the outer belt on Topspeed runs.

Need to change the pulleys, ie crank, alt, water pump, ps pump.
I can't change as my trigger wheel is locked/welded to my crank pulley.
Saying that I've never had any slippage in the wet, but do have to hunt a bit for two belts when replacing them that are the same width, even ones of the same make can vary in width, as most makers actually just buy them in and box them, plus multi seem to last forever as well.

Tabs, I assume all the pulleys are just a simple swap over, no different bolt hole alignments or anything silly like that?
Or you could get all new anodised pulleys for the 4x4 and put them in a 2wd?

The big pulley on the bottom left is the power steering pump. The spare set of grooves on the front of the crank pulley is for an air con pump which i don't run

To change over to the later ribbed type belt, you will need the main bracket that goes on the offside side of the block, tensioner, all the ribbed belt pulleys, and power steering pump pipe (the power steering pumps are on opposite sides). I'm pretty sure the pumps are the same.

i dont know if anyones done it but thats how i was going to go on my escos
as far as i know you need a ribbed belt pulley for crank, water pump and alternator, you will also use a 2wd alt bracket and tension it like you would ona twin belt system
the p/s pump would be v belt and need to be spaced out to keep it inline with the front of the crank pulley as this would use the v groove on the crank usually for aircon

Can you get a multi ribbed belt as shown above but one that only goes from crank to water pump to alternator? i will either run the power steering on the other side with a single v belt or i will be running electric power steering so will have no power steering pump or belt
thanks

what i want is a crank pulley with multi rib on the inside and v belt on the outer side,
Im gonna be getting a billet pully from mk motorsport so im sure he could do this for me with a 36-1 trigger ring on the back.
Just need to know if i can get a multi ribbed belt that just does crank/alt/water pump
