I'm stopped a light and I here this beating noise and I'm like wtf. So I go right on red and then my truck tells me my battery is not charging. Then my power steering goes so I pull over and pop the hood. What do you know my belt is in ton of peaces. Luckily I had some tools in my truck and another belt. I’ve heard of this happing before to people that run superchargers and tight belts so I’ve had one in my truck.

check the pulley alignment. the power steering pulley might have walked out, the end of the pump shaft should be flush with the outer end of the pulley stickout. make sure all pulleys turn good. make sure the tensioner holds tension. dooublecheck the single idler pulley, that one goes out first it seams like......also check that the waterpump is not leaking coolant, engine coolant on the belt can cause it to shred up also...

I've looked at the pulleys and it all looks and turns good I think it was just it's time togo.
