V-Belt questions. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Last summer I picked up an 85 c10 with a 305 engine in it. The v-belts were all off so I got new ones and installed them as to what size seemed to go where. I have tore up a couple of them already. I am starting to think maybe I don't have them installed correctly.
I saw a picture in a 79 service manual and it's different then how I have them installed but that could be because I have an 85.
I am hoping someone can take a picture of how they should be or if they have an 85 service manual, copy the picture and send it to me or post it..
The truck has air cond., power steering, alt, and air pump.
Seems like installing v-belts would be a simple thing to do, duh, but not for me.
