I inspected the 30 year old belts and the alt belt shows some cracking, since I have to remove them all to get to it should I go ahead and replace em all......stupid question???

Is this really a question or do you want peoples approval? I hope you already cleaned out the EGR port , rebuilt the carb and replaced the blinker fluid also..and stay out of the mountains.

Belts? Good idea. Go for it. Just don't get them ones with the notches on the outside. They just don't look right on these old cars.
Also, Al, be very careful how you use them scary 4 words- "While I'm at it"

Figure if I have to loosen all the brackets and take the other belts off its time and money well spent.
Now if that alt belt was in the front it may be a different story

Hoses look good but Doctor 7T1 has me doin a royal flush on the collant.
