belt
if it's anything like my 92 laredo, you need to first loosen the adjusting bolts on the power steering pump. ( may have to remove the air intake box, filter and cover before that ). once this pump is loose, all the way! , you can wiggle the belt off. i've often times found myself having to take the clutch fan off as well. might has well remove that too prior to belt removal. good luck. email me if you need. jeff

Re: Serpantine Belt Removal/Install
I don't know if it's the same but I just replaced the serpentine belti on my 97 xj when I replaced my power steering pump.
Right next to the powersteering pump is a long bolt that adjusts the tension on the belt. First lossen the bolt on the pulley below the power steering unit 1 turn. Then loosen the tension bolt until the belt slips off of the dampener. That's the best way I can describe what I did. It was pretty simple once I figured that out and used the proper swear words.

Re: Serpantine Belt Removal/Install
Removal:
1: Disconnect negative battery cable from battery. 2: Loosen idler pulley bolt at the power steering bracket. 3: Loosen adjusting bolt until belt can be removed from pulleys. 4: Remove belt. Installation: 1: Check condition of all pulleys. CAUTION: When installing the serpentine accessory drive belt, the belt MUST be routed correctly. If not, the engine may overheat due to the water pump rotating in the wrong direction. 2: Install new belt. 3: Using serpentine belt tension gauge, tighten adjusting bolt until belt reaches proper tension. Refer to Belt Tension at the rear of this section for proper belt tension. 4: After belt is tensioned correctly, tighten idler pulley bolt to 47 Nm (35 ft. lbs.) 5: After idler pulley has been tightened into position, recheck belt tension. Adjust if necessary. Copyright © 2004 ALLDATA LLC
