Hey guy's, I'm having a few prob's with Paddock spare's  :roll: Been waiting a week for a water hose pipe not delivered when told e.t.c. e.t.c. Anyway my question is this. I've removed 4 belt's from my rangie but paddock are telling me that I should only have 3 ! Any idea's  :?: I should be getting my bit's at last tomorrow so I'll let you know what I get  :evil:

Theres no need to dance, there are 2 reasons I dislike that design.

1 You have to remove 3 belts just to change one of them (guess which one I've had problems with :( )

2 If the watter pump belt breaks you have no warning on those 4 belt V8s where as engines with one belt for water and alternator if it breaks then the red light comes on giving you some warning rather than a few minuets latter when the engine temperature starts to soar.


I lied, I've remembered a third

3 by the time you've taken the slack out of the PAS belt then theri is bearly enough adjustment on the alterator with new belts and old belts there is none left.
