changing the alternator belt...
Sigh, theres no other way to change the alternator belt than to take all the other ones off, is there? I'm assuming there isnt, and it looks like a pain in the neck, should i just take it to the shop? Should i go ahead and get all the belts new? Thanks guys,

well you can just cut the old ones off, that's easy. but I don't think you can fit the alternater belt over the fan. it's pretty small... haven't tried though.

I put my old ones in one of my boxes in the back.. Just in case one of my new ones snaps ... I carry lots of essentials, like coolant, oil... Super glue (o yes.. Very helpful..) towells... I even have emergency side moulding TAPE haha .. razor blades... FINE grit sandpaper.. (in case I get a nick and need to buff it out or something) haha
truth is , just too lazy to put it all away.. so I throw it back there for "Emergencies" haha
Taking the fan off is VERY easy.. it's a 10 mm or 8 mm job.. and you don't need to take the shroud off.... Or just try and fit them arund the blades...
