Interesting that it can be done in an emergancy though.
it sound like you /will/ need to know the length/width of the AC belt before you can get the right one.
From memory, the Gates website had extensive listings.
I found the past ebay purchase for my belt and it's description is:
6PK1740
I thought of building a fixed tensioner to replace the noisy auto one, but i'm thinking that the longer AC belt may be more likely to slip with temperature change, not forgetting that we already have the extra load of the AC pump compred to other models.
Does anyone know for sure what has to be removed to replace the AC model auto-adjuster? I recall reading on this forum that it may be model dependant.

exactly ron...its not wrapped enough to reduction the squeaking sound....even it still can turn ac and ps ON...that exactly what i thought...
and BIG YES (and big thanks)....6PK1740 <----i'm badly needed this is info....even if...just if...there is nobody sell it in indonesia....there are lot garage in here that can made custom belt from scratch as long as we know the specs of the belt with cheap price....
in your third paragraph....is it means stock tensioners in XUD have tendency to squeaking ? (even in great condition)
