Broken down on side of the road. Found an alternator, looking for a belt number and a belt diagram for 06 Endeavor with 400 Cummins, engine #46478000.

Anyone who has already changed their belt, or has a diagram, I'd really appreciate your help.

Hope this helps, but it may not be exactly like yours. See the attached picture.

Here is the belt diagram for my 2007 coach that has a 2006 FCCC chassis with the 400hp ISL. Shows rear and side radiator routing:

Robi, I only wish mine looked that good. My 02 Diplomat is buried under the bedroom slide and the rear radiator keeps the engine completely out of view. Good thing as it looks nothing like the picture posted above. Washed it recently but it didn't help much.

That looks like Happycarzz's (Harry) engine.

If not Happycarzz then it must be Diplomat Don's. Those two guys put us all to shame when it comes to cleaning.

I keep the the engine looking good and Don keeps his wheels looking good, ultra shiny.

Maybe, because he has a rear radiator on his coach and nobody will see it, so he concentrates on the wheels. But, I've never been inside his coach. Maybe he has clear engine covers so it is visible. If not now, maybe soon, as I understand he is going into retirement mode.

If you start the belt by wrapping up around the crank, then just follow the other pulleys according to smooth pulley = back side of belt, ribbed pulley = ribbed side of belt, you can always figure out the route. Leave the smooth idler pulley for last as that's what takes out the slack.

If you've never done it, its good to do a dry run so you know the tools & process. Never know when you'll get a rock kicked up and tear the belt, and maybe no roadside service to do the deed. I discovered that a 4" c-clamp made tensioning the AC pulley a snap, so I kept one clamped to the AC bracket when I had a rig w/a separate AC belt. My current rig has all pulleys serpentine belt driven so only need the long handled 1/2" drive for the idler pulley.
