Product Details

Gates Premium OE Micro-V belts are engineered for import and domestic vehicles, including Ford truck applications that require a precise accessory drive belt. The K081344 serpentine belt follows OE dimensions and material selection to support proper belt tracking and consistent drive operation. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 25-081344, JK8 1352) for the same application.

For Ford F-250 Super Duty and Ford F-350 Super Duty models with a single alternator, this belt provides the correct rib count and length specification for the factory-style accessory drive layout. The Gates K081344 is a practical replacement choice when servicing a worn, cracked, or stretched serpentine belt.

Common Reasons to Replace

• Squealing or chirping from the accessory drive belt
• Visible cracking, glazing, or rib wear on the belt surface
• Belt stretch that affects tension and tracking
• Accessory drive noise during engine operation
• Loss of consistent drive to alternator and other belt-driven components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle uses a single alternator before ordering. Confirm belt routing against the factory diagram and inspect pulleys, tensioner condition, and alignment before installation. A worn tensioner or damaged pulley can shorten belt life even when the correct belt is installed.
