Well I was wondering if you guys would trust a used RRM UDP on your car

Has 8k miles on it!

Heres some pics:




Let me know what you think

 

Used UDP = yes.
Used belt = not so much.

 

yea I was planning on gettin a new belt if I got it....I wouldnt trust the belt

 

Definately. Question is, why wouldnt you trust it?

 

Are people still debating over this topic? I should finf the damn post I made when I brought this out. Bump it up so all the newbs can read it.

 

He's moreso just asking if we feel it's alright to pick up a used one, which it is.

 

+1. Used belts are a big no-no.

Check the bolt holes....make sure it wasn't over-torqued previously. If those look good, then it should be okie dokie!

 

^^+1 to both those points. these pullies have def. had the mielage put on them that it's def. not an issue.

 

no

 

people have run the pulleys for 30k+ with no problems. Should not be a problem as long as there are no chips or anything in it.

 

I've had my UDP for a year and a half now and I've had no problems, so if longevity and legitamcy of this product is in question I don't think it should be. As far as it being a used part I think as long and the pulley looks clean (no scratches, chips or dents) it should be fine. Just do a good visual inspection of it.

I'm not sure if I'd trust a used belt though. But the better quetion is where can you get a new belt from? Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't those belts special ordered for the UDP by RRM? I would think that the only place you can buy a belt that would fit would be from RRM and I'm not sure if they would be selling the belt by itself.

 

Nothing special about the belt other than it being a bit smaller than stock. I believe some part numbers for the belt are posted in some of the old UDP threads, or you could call RRM and ask them for the part number. Also, if that picture is the UDP belt in the original box, then there's a part number for ya, too. Most autoparts stores can cross-ref that number if you want another brand belt.

 

The belt number that comes with the UDP is 725K6. If your parts store doesn't carry that exact number, I'm sure they can cross-reference it, as otter said.

 

Than it's all good then.

 

fire it up!
