Re: '79 300D Alternator V-belt

I believe the belts are in this order, from the engine out: Alt then Power
Steering then AC.

So yes, you need to remove them all.

All of them have an Alternator. Not all have power steering. Other than
the
US where AC came stock, most do not have AC.

Ah, I see. Well, I was just a little taken aback, because I was
expecting two, and because with such accessories as alternators, I',
always wary that someone has hacked some after-market part on. Haven't
found that with this car anywhere else, though.  Thanks again for the
help.

Now for the stupid part of the question: Can I change one belt or do I
have to remove them all. I haven't looked in there yet to see if I can
get the Alt. and Steering belts off without taking off all three.
