Super helpful. Driving to work two days ago and my belt started squeaking something fierce whenever I pulled off from a stop and samtarted to hear debris on my right side. Got to work and 3/4s of my serpentine belt was shreaded/wrapped around my fan. Got a new belt on today to realize my lower pulley disintegrated. Both of your videos has made this repair a breeze especially when the closes mechanic said they can't even see me till next week to replace my belt.
Your videos saved me so much time and money. I'm so glad you have so many videos of the ram 1500 because I'm starting to redo my front end and you have every video I needed thank you
Liked the video but you didn't mention the washer or the small plate that you have to put on the front. They do not come with the new replacement part so how do you get them if you need them?
I was in a pinch and used the grooved pulley from my old tensioner in place of the lower smooth pulley. should I get a smooth pulley for it when I get back home or just let it ride?

When I try to replace the idler pulley on the bottom the pulley doesn't seat all the way back after tightening the bolt and the belt sits half on/off the pulley. Does any one know why this would be happening. also; everything else is in alignment.

Awesome how to! I like how you show the front of the engine with the grille removed to see the entire belt system. Really good visual.
I own the exact same ram and these videos have saved me a ton of money. I've changed my own serpentine belt, pulleys, and spark plugs. Thanks

How do you replace the tensioner?
+rhettbruckner Here's a link to the belt tensioners on our website, and some videos that should help you out goo.gl/tLPr4X
1A Auto Parts would wd40 help to silence the squeak until I replace the tensioner or would that affect it at all?
👍👍
