Hi guys,

I need to change the 3 belts, for alternator, ac, power steering.


Do you know which belts sizes (alternator, ac, power steering) I have to chose for my 73 Gran Torino Sports (fastback) 351 Cleveland 2BBL.

Because I see differents sizes for the same alternator belt, ac belt, power steering belt.

Thanks in advance

each belt may be different depending upon what accessories the car has, power steering belt is different
depending upon if the car has A/C or not, and if the A/C is factory installed or dealer installed
 
bottom line, it's a mess
 
are US style belts common over there?
 
did you contact ilyes?
 
factory or dealer A/C ?

Thanks Rockatansky 

My Torino has A/C and power steering.
We have shops who are specialized in american classics cars but it's expensive that's why I prefer to order stuff in US.
I think it's a factory A/C, but the guy who sold me the car told me He changed the A/C but maybe it was only the gas...

I watched some photos that I took of my belts a few weeks ago, it's only written "17555" on one of the belts and on the other one (alternator) I can only read "DA CO" "539" and so I checked on Rockauto it looks like a Dayco one "1539DR" 
I have to take a photo for the third belt.
