I can't figure out how to get the belts on the pulley's for the A/C, alternator, and power steering. All the adjusting bolts and brackets are broken so I can't move them. I was wondering if anyone knew a trick to get them on without using the adjusting bolts and brakets.

The stock shit is awesome, easy to use and solid.
Can you send me a link to buy them? I can't find them anywhere.

One time my power steering belt just came off while driving. Loosening the bolts that hold the power steering pump wouldn't make it budge. Robert at e30motorwerks had a hard time moving my pump, but he managed to move it just enough to get the belt back on.
Anyway, here are some realoem diagrams of the mounting stuff needed:

I checked ECS and they sell the alternator brackets in packs of 5 hahaha
Pelican Parts sells them individually.

I also need help with the belts
Hi all,
Noob here, stymied by the power steering pump belt on my 1989 325ix. Nothing is broken (I think), but I'm having trouble identifying the bolts that need to be loosened so nothing does break. Am I correct in thinking that #11 is the only bolt I need to loosen before trying to turn #13? Thanks in advance.
