The A/C belt in my 2004 Silverado 1500 4.8L snapped recently, and I believe it’s because one of the pulleys seized up. 2 days before the truck was making a relatively loud screech from the engine compartment at startup. The belt was a gator-type and installed on 12/10/17. I’m not an expert at engine repair, so what pulleys drive the A/C belt? And if one of them is truly seized, how do I properly fix it?
I have an ‘04 Silverado 1500 regular cab stepside 4x4, 4.8L V8. Does anybody know what the max towing is for that configuration? I believe the max payload is 1,275 lbs. My truck has a 3” body lift and the original factory installed trailer hitch receiver, if that affects anything.
I’m not a towing pro, but I would like to know if it can handle a sedan weighing less than 4,000 lbs. Below is a picture.
