Keep the alternator, water pump, and other belt-driven engine accessories turning with the Gates Accessory Drive Belt 7400, a durable High Capacity XL V-belt built for demanding engine drives. It loops over the factory pulleys as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1983 Dodge Charger (L4-2.2L), 1983 Ford F-150 (L6-4.9L), 1987 Chevrolet Camaro (V8-5.0L), 1976-1984 Chevrolet Chevette (L4-1.6L), and 1985-1986 BMW 524TD (L6-2.4L) — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

  • Variable notched design: as the belt heats up it tightens on the drive to help prevent slippage, improve belt performance, and reduce noise.
  • Fiber-loaded rubber stock: adds flexibility along the length of the belt and provides greater lateral stability in the pulley.
  • Form-ground profile: precise top-width and sidewall dimensional control for a proper fit to the pulley.
  • Thermally-active tensile cords: polyester cords deliver maintenance-free performance when the belt is properly installed and tensioned; the EPDM body resists oil, heat, ozone, weather, and aging for improved belt life.

With a .41 in (10 mm) top width and a 40.83 in (1037 mm) outside circumference, it meets or exceeds SAE J636C specifications. Quantity varies by application — some engines use one belt while others use up to three — and this listing is for a single belt. Made in the United States.
