Hey Matt,

Sorry for the delay. In rainy Portland winters, it was a constant dance to keep the single-belt tension at the magic tightness to prevent horrible squeal/slipping. With two belts, it's been set and forget. Plus, spacing out the PS pump is super easy/cheap with common hardware store bits. I'll try to attach a pic or two of the setup on R's 93 wagon.

And...I finally hit on the perfect belt! A 15-405 went on today with no tools or cursing and tensioned up perfectly. I'd tried 13-400 & 15-395 (both work, tight fit so you have to "roll" it on and off), and 15-415 (wouldn't tension). I mean, I'd rather just have AC, but...

Best,
joe b
