To change the serpentine belt on a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica, first, ensure the engine is off and cool. Locate the belt routing diagram, usually found on a label in the engine bay. Use a wrench to relieve tension on the serpentine belt tensioner, then remove the old belt from the pulleys. Finally, thread the new belt according to the routing diagram, release the tensioner to secure the belt, and double-check alignment before starting the engine.

Remove the belt from the tensioner and the other pulleys, then unbolt the tensioner from its mounting bracket. Install the new tensioner, re-thread the serpentine belt according to the routing diagram, and finally, check the tension and alignment.
Yes, on a 3.3 or 3.8 the serpentine belt pulley does come off the tensioner arm but the bolt is left thread not right handed.
You pry it over enough to remove the belt. You loosen the tensioner pulley bolt and thread the adjuster bolt backwards on a 4.0L.
Its a left hand thread hold the other side of the metric cresent wrench
Remove serpentine belt and have new tensioner ready, look at it the bolt holding it to the block may be lefthanded thread usually 18 mm. Mosy gm parts are bolted on with metric so try to take it off with left handed thread (clockwise first) if that isn't it then do the normal way put belt back on. A belt tensioner tool is a good investment. they ar eat autozone and cheap and make the job a 5 minute task
No it is not. The bolt on the pulley is but the tensioner mounting bolt is a T55 torx bit head with the standard thread (right/tight left/loose).
standard thread on the 99 model with 4.0 liter.
The bolts are right hand thread (BUT) U DON"T want 2 remove the bolt in the center of he pully.U have 2 replace the tensioner & bracket assembly.There is many pounds of pressure on the tensioner spring
Remove belt and tensioner complete should be able to be unbolted from engine (Left-hand thread)
Mounted with "left-hand" thread
