If you have a 96-2000 chrysler minivan with the 3.0L engine with serpentine
belt problems, then I have just the fix. The Goodyear 49204K belt kit. This kit fixes the serpentine belt problem once and for all. |

We put a gatorback on our 94 chevy c1500 4.3 v6 and it seemed to be a good replacement for the cracked one that was on it. Really is quiet too. Also would that be the same problem as our 92 Dynasty 3.3 where the belt would jump off every time it rained and we drove through a puddle? |

The gatorback line of belts is definetly a superior belt (noise wise as
well as performance in wet conditions), however the belt offered in the fix kit for the 3.0L is not part of the Gatorback series. It is however a special (ribs on both sides) belt that will not fall of the pulleys once installed. As far as your 92 Dynasty with the 3.3L engine, Goodyear does not yet offer a field fix kit for that engine. Until they do, I would recommend that you use a Gatorback belt and ensure your belt tensioner is working properly. Also I would ensure that any splash shields that came with the vehicle are in place and working well. |

Like I said before, too bad your too late with a fix, Chrysler designed a
fix TSB for older 3.0s already, it includes a shield being installed on the right side to keep out snow and rain, here is a quote from another message group reguarding the 'older' 3.0's, Just call the chrysler dealer and ask for service give them ur vin number and ask if the part numbers below apply to your vehicle. There is a TSB out to fix this problem and has been out for a long time. It involves installing a redesigned shield and retainers. TSB 07-03-94 Rev.A Quantity Part No. Description 1 **4673254** Shield 2 6030441 Retainers 1 **6035135** Screw **AR 4612829 Belt, Serpentine Drive** "javert" > wrote in message lkaboutautos.com... > The gatorback line of belts is definetly a superior belt (noise wise as > well as performance in wet conditions), however the belt offered in the > fix kit for the 3.0L is not part of the Gatorback series.

The "snow shield" is a bandaid fix at best.

I dont know, but for the older ones, it will have to work, unless that belt
you use would work on the older 3.0s "javert" > wrote in message lkaboutautos.com... > The "snow shield" is a bandaid fix at best. > |
