A worn belt can show cracks, fraying or a squeal under load. Before you replace it, rule out a seized pulley, a weak tensioner or an oil leak onto the belt, because any of these can wear out a new belt too.
It is listed for a wide range of Ford, International/Navistar and Blue Bird models, including the 1977-1982 Ford F-250 6.6L and the 1978 Ford Bronco 5.8L / 6.6L. Each of those takes one belt, and the quantity varies by application. Open the "Vehicles it fits" section to check your exact model and engine.
