If you can find a NAPA store, try asking for a 25-24379 or 25-28386. The
first number is the belt I use, one of my local stores had one in stock, the
other didn't. The second number was supplied by James Holecamp, and may or
may not be correct. James also supplied :
Gates TR28386
Goodyear - part no 24377
One other shot, if you have a dealer for Cummins truck parts nearby, a
Cummins 178539WRZ will work.
Since all of these are long shots, I always carry a new spare belt, wrapped
in plastic to slow down the inevitable ozone attack, and stuffed in the
center of the spare tire along with a few other spare parts.
