Re: 1971 4x4 Suburban Project - the 'Family Adventure Wagon'
This weekend I decided to take on doing a new harmonic balancer and adding the serpentine kit.
I scored the kit on the Summit scratch n dent rack for $380. It included all the brackets, bolts, as well as a new water pump, power steering pump, and alternator.
One issue I knew of was that my AC pump is V belt and I didn't want to have to change it as its only a year old. So I got a new serpentine clutch. The swap wasnt too bad. Having the special tools and puller would make it go pretty easy. I had to improvise a bit, but got it done.
