Hey guys I have a M1123 Humvee without Ac
My truck didn’t have the serpentine belt on it when I bought it.
I was able to start the truck today, now I need the correct belt for it,
Is this gonna be 98 inch belt? Can I find it at NAPA ?

thank you very much.

There are 2 possible belts, depending on what serpentine style you have.

If yours has the later setup with the remote power steering reservoir and the extra idler between the generator and power steering pump, then it's the one posted above.
If it's the older style with power steering reservoir built onto the pump and no extra idler, it's a shorter belt.

circled portion is the remote power steering reservoir, so the belt listed above should be the correct one.
As was mentioned though, the generator isn't installed, and probably other stuff that needs fixed before you can fire it up.

You don’t have a generator… I believe the belt that I posted is right once you have a generator
I am not going to use a generator, I’ll be using regular 12 volt alternator with 8 groove pulley,
I have converted the truck to 12 volts already,
The alternator will be bolted on the same location as the generator, I’ll make a custom bracket based on the length of the belt.

Thank you for the picture
That helps a lot, I think with those part numbers Napa can get me the right belt.

I did fire it up today
Runs excellent, of course no more than 35 second’s because I don’t have the belt .
