    2001 TJ 4.0 serpentine belt won't go on

    check, double check, the water pump you installed. Earlier years like this one are a reverse rotation pump. Wondering if an incorrect pump may position the shaft a little higher than the correct pump?? Belt routing from water pump to alternator certainly comes close to idler/belt above it...

    Parking brake lever experiment

    I'll guinea pig that idea. Part is now in my rockauto cart. Install will not happen until mother nature improves the conditions of my garage (nice garage except no walls or roof). I'll aim to field a report at some time.
