Bando alt belt - 2320 or 2315?
So a fellow owner in Texas has sent me some Bando alt belts since I've yet to use a Gates that lasted longer than about 2 months. :mad:
The code on her belts is: 2320 9.5x820La The code on the one I last got from the dealership (before they discontinued them) is: 2315 9.5x800La Any comments on the difference between the two types? Should I be concerned about using the 2320? |
Sounds like one is 20mm longer.
If it fits, who cares. :) -Ted |

I know this thread is super old, but I use Bando 2320 belts recently and I keep shredding them apart. I have searched and searched and searched for a solution. I do run a 3L220 yoohoo belt, but it deflects a good bit for its length, and it doesn't even get hot. Also, I had this problem before I had the yoohoo, which I thought would aide my solution. The Bando belt seems to sit higher than the edges of the pulley. I can see on my brand new alternator's fresh black pulley where the belt rubs to, and it's only about halfway down. Is there any difference running a 9mm rather than a 9.5?
I'm really running out of options here. I have checked deflection, pulley alignment and seating, and more recently, replaced the alternator. Not much money left. |
wow, you revived all the threads... good job searching but I feel all of these are unneccessary
|
What are you saying is unecessary? Not everyone can get to their threads right away and I needed my problem to be resolved three hours ago.
|
different belts, different alternators- maybe you are installing them wrong?
|
Changing an alternator and belt is monkey-simple. Foolproof aside from belt tension, but I have 1/2" deflection, so I don't know.
Is the dual sheave pulley idea any better? I hear the same from guys who do that route too. |
FYi the OE belt is the 800 length.
|
Removed all plugs from the alt so I have no electrical loads, and the alternator works like a top, doesn't get hot. What's my problem?
|
too many threads on this same thing, I cant keep up.
|
I have been trying to avoid making a new thread because there ARE so many on this subject. I have literally spent HOURS searching.
