Replace the serpentine belt on a 2005-2010 Chrysler 300.

Steps

1. Remove the old belt

   Check the routing diagram, fit a 3/8 inch drive into the tensioner's square socket, rotate it clockwise, then remove the belt.

2. Install the new belt

   With its ribs facing the engine, slide it between the tensioner pulley and the engine with the smooth side against the tensioner, loop it around the crank, A/C compressor, power steering and idler pulleys, bring it around the tensioner, use the 3/8 inch ratchet to pull the tensioner clockwise, bring it around the alternator, then release the tensioner.

Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
