Does anyone have the part number for the gatorback serpentine belt for a 02 2500HD 8100/Allison? Autozone can't find it and they can't cross reference from the stock (12576747) belt.

 

Thanks for your help.

Id like to know too since no chevy or GMC  dealer even stocks the stocker.   In fact they dont even dtock the belts for the Dmax/Allison.  I guess they figure you will never need one.

 

Even the service departments dont have any either.

Thanks for the Goodyear link. I checked the Silverado model option instead of the C & K Series and got 6PK2415 as the corresponding metric part number for the 8.1L V8.

 

I go out to my truck to take a look at the belts and find the belt has a GM part number on it followed by the number 6PK2410 EB. This happens to be pretty close to those listed Goodyear site and makes me wonder if my ticking problem be due the dealer warrantying me the wrong belt?

 

Who is more credible - the GM service technician or Goodyear?

Comparing the 2415 belt to the 2410 belt, the difference is the length- the 2415 is 5mm longer then the 2410. The last four numbers refer to the overall length of the belt.

 

I doubt you have the wrong belt on your truck.

5 MM isnt much over the total length of belt, and im sure theres enough adjustment to accomodate either.  at least you'd think.

 

Id give more credit to goodyear than the mechanic.  I've met only a few mechanics that Id actually let work on my rides.

I went ahead and ordered the Goodyear Gatorback #4060950 - 6PK2415 and got around to putting it on tonight. Had a few minutes to tinker around before picking up kids and thought why not. I guess I had some reservations about whether it would be the right belt but when stretched out it was the same length as the stock #12576747. I will see how long it takes before this one starts chirping in the morning like the others. I am getting ready to turn 40K and this is my fourth belt.

:cool: I thought maybe you were putting on the Gator belt to get some extra HP.....

 

A buddy of mine did a dyno with the stock belt and then put the gator belt on and then dyno numbers were about 15-20 HP more. This was due to the fact that the factory belt was slipping on his supercharger and the gator belt grabbed better and had no slippage.

 

I can't believe that you've went thru 4 squeaky belts..... Someone told me once that it's due to the belt being too tight. You might check to see that your belt tensioner is working corectly, it could be over tightning your belts.

      primary drive belt tensioner

      By Deadwood · Posted

      I bought belts and pulleys for my '20 L5P at Rock Auto a couple years ago. I have used them for many years, and almost always save significant money, especially when I buy maintenance stuff ahead of time.   They carry many OEM parts, which is all I use unless an aftermarket is shown to be same/superior, or if it is an insignificant part or unavailable OEM part anywhere else. RA is usually lower priced, often by a bunch, but parts are sometimes unavailable or out of stock, and I do shop around and sometimes find better prices at other sites.   Be aware that you pay shipping, and if you buy multiple items and they are coming from different warehouses, the shipping can kill the advantage. Planning ahead is best if possible.   If you have a transmission service in the near future, check out their OEM (AC Delco ULV) fluid, usually MUCH less than anywhere else.

      10L1000 anyone with High Mileage ? I hate Damocles....

      By Deadwood · Posted

      New member here, very long time occasional guest. Saw this thread, thought it would be a good time to contribute someting. It is only my experience and not a claim that everyone will have the same.   I bought my '20 3500 L5P new and have put 99.9% (literally) of it's current ~400k miles on it myself, with over 50% of that towing loads between 4k to 15k, and to me this truck has been nothing short of amazing. For the first 235k I had zero issues, and from there until 321k I replaced a NOx sensor, two failing glow plugs, and three of the notorious injector connectors. I believe this truck is in part, a testament to good luck, but also good care and following a decent maintenance schedule (I also keep meticulous records.) As a result, it looks as good as a well cared for 70k rig, up and down, inside and out.   At some point before that 321k mile mark I began to get a little spooked about the 10L1000, especially the valve body. Word of mouth about potential issues prompted me to jump on the net to sift through all the noise and determine what all the fuss was about. I routinely take long trips, coast-to-coast and points in between, so roadside breakdowns can be '...a thousand miles from nowhere' and a bit of a challenge, and though I had no issues, my guard was up and activated.   And then I stumbled across a chance to salvage some parts off a new 2025 that had been wrecked in transport. I grabbed a few wear items (alternator, pulleys, etc.) and on a whim asked what the ten speeder would cost me. It was cheap...really cheap. I knew some changes had been made in the '24+ version 10L and were supposedly not compatible, but I called service/parts at my local Chevy dealer and asked why and they didn't know. A call to a well known aftermarket transmission outfit revealed it was very likely it would be fine, but to them not 100% sure.   Because it was cheap (really cheap) and I was spooked, I took the chance. Had it installed by a local shop and it worked like a champ, shifted just like the original. At it's first service at 37k, I had the shop put in a Next Gen valve body kit, which after some initial hiccups and rough shifts, smoothed out though with somewhat firmer shifting.   All that said, I have a very serious concern about my newer transmission as just two weeks ago it suddenly began to exhibit a strong reluctance to engage forward or reverse. It was a bit past due anyway so I took it in for service. The reason it was sticking was due to 'glitter' in the fluid clogging the filter...not good folks, often indicates a converter giving out. We ended up going ahead with the new filter and fluid, first to see if it would move and shift, and then if so buy me a little time. It did, and I've driven it over a thousand miles and it is shifting smooth, no noises or slipping. Regardless, it looks like a third gearbox is in my future so I can resume taking long trips with some confidence. In the very short term, my curiosity will have me examining the fluid to check how much glitter has reappeared.   An earlier poster had alleged, in the context of 10L100 failures, that it is another example of how we seasoned citizens somehow descend into hysteria, lose control of our senses, and react irrationally after brief encounters with the idiocy of the internet infosphere. Let me say (and I have used and abused said internet since it's infancy) there is no segment of the populace that has a corner on over-reaction to digital garbage. Just as my offering of experience in this arena is purely anecdotal and should not be considered gospel or all-encompassing, I believe it is still worthwhile information to consider, along with other relevant anecdotal experiences about things like complex transmissions, especially when balanced with other sources.   So to answer the original question, yes I got high miles out of my first 10L, trouble free for 321,000. Now I really wonder how much longer it would have went. Did I 'overreact' to the internet ghouls by replacing a 'good' one with a 'bad' one? Maybe. Who knows, the thing might have taken a puke a 100 miles later. So I'll just fix it again, then move on and start thinking about all the other stuff that will eventually wear out. It still has the original brakes (they're at ~60%), original injectors/pump, turbo, water pump, etc....pretty much original everything. Knock on wood.

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      At peak temperature.  They get to cool down and warm up more, especially those with the external cooler.  I have three GMT900s and one of them has over 225K on its original transmission.  Fluid gets changed about every 36K miles, all of it.     It's not the bean counters, it was the government.  They had to meet CAFE standards and other government requirements.   To get around that, we tune them and modify them to our liking.
