Almost every car and truck since 1980 has a belt routing guide on a sticker under the hood. This is most often placed on the radiator shroud or radiator mount but can be found other places like on the bottom side of the hood. If the sticker is gone then go to your local automotive parts dealer like NAPA and ask them to please look it up for you. A nice counter guy - or girl- would be happy to check their books for you and hand you a print out. Be sure to have the make, model and engine info with you. Mitch
It depends on the make of vehicle and there is NO set way to route a belt as it varies from one make to another. Should be a sticker under the hood showing the routing of it. If not, contact the dealer or get a Haynes or Chilton manual. copy and paste the following address it will take you to a page on where you will select if is a 2wd or 4wd after selecting that follow the links and it will show you the diagram you need. http://www.autozone.com/servlet/UiBroker?UseCaseprocessMake&Parameters=%7C%7EFORD+TRUCK if the link fail just go to www.autozone.com look for vehicle specs.
There should be a diagram on the underside of the hood.
if a serpentine belt is loose, it needs replacing. there is an automatic tension pulley on all serpentine belts. so just buy a new belt and install
belt is probably to big, try a 1 or 2 inch smaller belt.
If you have a serpentine belt, there is no real way to do bypass it. The AC must be part of the route because it keeps the tension on the alternator. There is a bracket with a pulley that jeeps w/o AC had and if your AC doesn't work, try putting a bracket and pulley in.
If you've got a 4.0 litre engine than you've got a Automatic belt tensioner on the engine. Sits to the right of the alternator. If your belt is loose, than you need to check that the belt is on properly on all the pulleys, or if you have the right belt. If the belt was made for a motor with A/C and yours doesn't have that, then the belt will be to long. Check with your local auto part supply store. Hope this helps...... For info on how to route the belt, get a chiltons manuel and it will have a diagram.

Follow the route of the serpentine belt. It drives the alternator.
The serpentine should route the same as with the AC except fro the AC compressor. The belt will go straight past the compressor, so you will need a shorter belt to make the bypass work.
