Changing belts

I need to change my belts really bad. It's to the point where I can't keep a charge on my battery. How hard is this to change the belts? I need this ASAP, thanks

Not really too hard. Just need a basic tool set and maybe a prybar or something to put tension on the belts.

If you cant figure it out by looking at it, look at the service manual. Also get your battery and alternator checked out if you arent holding a charge..

i just did it today actually... it wasnt hard but it sucked because i had to change the alt belt and of course you have to take off the p/s and a/c belt to get it off... also it looks like that belt will not clear the fan but what you do is put one side into the fan blade - then turn the fan blade- and when you make a full rotation the belt comes off... dont cut the old one in case you got the wrong size unless you have a ride somewhere... goodluck...
