Per Packard Master Parts book it is either a 320517 or 351106? Local parts store seem not equipped. Posted on: 2022/10/27 2:55

I had a 2001 Mitsubishi mirage that I had to do that for, took be a good two days to find a suitable belt. Posted on: 2022/10/27 10:25

Be aware that getting these wide and stiff belts off and on can be challenging. It can be done, don't give up. Posted on: 2022/10/27 15:08

I can faintly recall buying a belt for my 1950 Custom 8 identified as a Gates 880. Those numbers are probably obsolete but perhaps you can trace something from them. Posted on: 2022/10/28 12:14
