2.3L ('83-'97) AC/PS Bypass Belt 2.3L

[i86hotdogs]

Have a '94 RWD 2.3L 5-speed. Does not have AC, but does have power steering. Power steering pump went out on me last night, will bypass the PS pump until I get everything I need to do the job. Part stores show two lengths of belts for this application. 433K6 and 435K6 per Autozone's website. I am not understanding the difference between the regular serpentine belt (433K6) and the "alternator" serpentine belt. I could also be reading the notes wrong. All other serpentine belts that apply to engine with power steering are significantly larger than these two (720K6). Any help on which belt is correct would be appreciated.

One is 43.3in the other is 43.5.
IF it's like the 4.0, the difference is for 2 slightly different size idler/tensioner pulleys and a different alternator pulley depending on amp rating.

Gotcha, thanks for the tip. I'll honestly buy both and see which one fits better
