I changed out my alternator earlier and inspected the belt and pulleys and all appeared to be in good working order and no squealing, but for a high time Ex, I am planning on replacing the belt, tensioner pulley, and idler pulley in the near future, or at least have them on hand.

Any preference on the brands? My local Advance has all Dayco products, Napa has their own stuff, and Rock has several brands.

Thanks in advance and Happy Veteran's Day!
 






I used the Dayco with no problems. As far as changing out the idler pulley I would not recommend it. The quality of the replacement pulley bearing is poor and it will start squealing after a short time.
