    Power steering alt. belts
    « on: August 27, 2015 - 02:45:07 PM »
    I want to put stock looking belts on my 72 Cuda. I have not heard good things about the Quanta belts. Everything else I have found have lugs and such. Ideas?

    Lugs? On the outside? Sounds like Dayco. Try Gates belts instead. Do you know the lengths you need?

    The Quanta belts stretch over time and then loosen. They fatigue out pretty quick.
    They have the right V pitch to them fitting the pulley's well.

    It's unfortunate nobody has offered a OEM replacement that has durability and strength combined.
