Changing Alt. belt

Ok

I'm changing the alt belt on a 90 Turbo II. i know I need to remove the two other belts to get it on and already got the alt belt around the fan. My question is what would be the easiest way to get the other two belts off????? There are pretty much new belts that look to be in great shape so I don't want to replace them. Help please!!!!!!!

since you have to take the other belts off anyway it's almost easier just to replace all of them. that way next time they need to be change you can do them all at once. otherwise u might have to go back in and change one at a time u would be in there alot more.

It's pretty easy and intuitive. I don't have power steering on my car, but there is a tensioning screw on the air conditioner and there are sliding type brackets on the air pump and altenator. Once the belts are loose, you can just remove them around the fan. If all else fails, buy a shop manual.
