Trying to find the correct belt for my explorer.
Bought a Bosch belt (6PK2225), but its far too long, despite it being the recommended one in their catalogue...?
So looked at some other brands.
Gates: K060854
Dayco: 6PK2170
Some other brand that I can't remember: 6PK2195
Confused...
The Gates and Dayco are about the same length (85.5in=2170mm (roughly)).
Not sure which one to get, and being in Australia no-one carries these in stock, so I can't just take the old belt in and get one the same.
Ford want to charge me $170+ for one, so they aren't an option.
Any help or just let me know what you run on yours if its the same
(XLT 4.0 SOHC)
Cheers.
