Wrong size
Does not fit an 01 Chevy van. Tried two of them and both were too big and caused the tensioner to fully extend to its stop and the belt would squeal with ac on. Had to go with one an inch shorter than the 5060960 they say is supposed to work for it.
not quite

I Have a 1998 gmc jimmy. I put this belt on and my truck developed a squeek the next day. so i replaced my idler pulley and tensioner. Still squeeled. I then pulled my pulleys off cleaned them and even sanded them for a better grip. For weeks I was pulling my hair out trying to find the noise. then i noticed that my tensioner had almost no pressure on it. and it even looked like the ribs of the belt were not all the way down into the pulleys. Being I already threw out the old belt (obvious mistake) I decided to return it and get a standard ribbed belt without the extra slices in the rib for noise reduction. before i started the car I noticed that this belt was shorter and my tensioner sat differently. squeek was gone instantly. Apparently some vehicles might not like this style belt. and it was noticeably longer. So do your homework and save your old belt until your sure this works.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
5060960 is 96 inches, not 96.8"

Dayco 5060960 is listed as fitting '99 GMC K1500 Suburban with 5.7L vortec with front and rear AC and engine code R. It doesn't fit as is only 96 inches ... as noted in the last three digits of the part number. When I was in the store I bought the Dayco belt that ended in part number 968 (which is closer to the OEM size of 2,455mm or 96.6") and THAT belt fits and works great. Change application tool on website and customers will be happier.

After two other store belts this one took the belt squeal right out of my 8.1.
