Belt routing is hard to screw up, although it can be done. If I remember correctly, there is only one place you can goof up, and that is which side of the crank pulley you put the loop for the tensioner on. It goes between the crank pulley and the fan pulley -- put the belt over the tensioner roller (flat side in), the take one side and go around alternator and over fan pulley. The other side goes around the crank pulley, around the AC pulley, and up to the PS pump.

You will need to compress the shock to get it on.
