Need insight on changing the serpentine belt of a 1999 Jeep Cherokee 4dr 4X4 Sport with a 4 Liter engine and automatic transmission?

John's a dumbazz. 10mm socket for the tensioner and 15mm wrench to loosen the pulley on the top right side of engine by the electrical auxiliary fan. Loosen the puuley 1st then the tensioner to get enough play to slip off old one and do reverse for the new one. EZ $$$ remove airbox, loosen the power steering pump, draw a diagram of how the belt is on there, remove old one and install new one. tension it and tighten bolts, in all about a 10 minute job. john


How do you replace the serpentine belt on a 1999 jeep Cherokee Sport?

Loosen the tensioner (It's the only pulley out of 7 that is not attached to a unit) by using a 15MM wrench, then loosen the tensioner screw on the upper left of the tensioner bracket (15MM as well), until you can remove the old belt, replace w/new belt and tighten screw then center tensioner bolt. Be careful of ADVANCE AUTO PARTS.....They like to give you the wrong belt. A good belt to use is the DRIVE RITE serpentine belt (Part No. 950K6), assuming you have a 4.0Ltr engine. Hope this helps!
