Detailed Product Description
This Continental serpentine belt drive component kit (part number K49275B) is engineered to meet the demands of heavy-duty GM vehicles including the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Avalanche 1500, and GMC Yukon XL 2500. The kit’s drive belt features six grooves and a length of 93 inches, designed to fit accessory drive systems requiring precise belt dimensions. The included steel idler pulley, with a smooth surface and dimensions of 3.54 inches in diameter and 1.19 inches in width, ensures consistent belt tracking and reduces friction.
