Follow up question, does anyone know the part numbers of the serpentine belts & what they should cost?

I just bought two for my 500 ISM Cummins, the main belt for 52$ and the air conditioner belt for 30$. Easy to replace. Keep the old ones for back up!

I've replaced our serpentine belt several times, keeping the old ones a spares.

The belts were installed by Country Coach, not the engine manufacturer, based on the configuration of the engine components. It helps to have your old belt, so you can get the number of the right belt. In my coach, Cat had no idea what belt to provide.

I purchased our belts at NAPA for about $50, as I recall. It was a fairly long belt, maybe over 100". At a NAPA store in Iowa, they special ordered it from the NAPA warehouse and got it at the local store the next day.

I scored 2 belts for $6/ea on Amazon. The next day, they shot up to $42. I crossed referenced the Cummins number on the existing belt. The shop wanted $125 to change.

1 serp = 10 mins. 1/2" pry bar. Make sure to take a pic of the pattern prior to removing.
