| Depends which engine. Anything other than the 3.0 then yes it is a sepentine type belt and it is a florr pan out and all drive belts and fan blade and cowwling off to get at the cam belt covers before you start. 3.0 can be done without removing anything from the passenger side engine cover. Tensioner is a bit of a pain but otherwise straight forward.
Just get the timing marks lined up and job if fairly easy with normal tools. Only the crankshaft pulley bolt will be a pain on non 3.0 engines. Word of caution the fule pump will spring out off alignment once the belt os slack - remember to turn it back before putting the new belt under tension. |
