LDS/LDT accessory belt length with and without power steering pump

[cattlerepairman]

I have a Vickers power steering pump off a 5ton multifuel to go onto my LDS. Does anyone know whether different belt lengths are required - and what they are - or does the pump fit right into the existing belt pathway?

That is a gear-driven pump; there are no belts involved...



It mounts right here...

gringeltaube IS correct. You will use the exact same belt. It runs off of the timing gear train.

If I was smelling burnt toast, I'd be worried I'd have a stroke. Not sure what I was thinking and where that brain fart came from. I had even looked at the gear drive of the pump, noting that it is indeed a gear-driven pump. Thanks for answering my not-very-intelligent question anyway!

Ha-ha, don't worry; we all have our senior moments...
(I guess it's happening more often to me, lately...)
