So my crank pulley has seperated and i had to get a fluidampr pulley to replace it. I assumed that the belts were the same size but i noticed too late that the outer belt (ac and power steering) was too small as the fluidamper pulley was a little larger diamater than the stock pulley and the belt would not fit on with the alternator all the way loosened. What size/part # belt do i need for this? Thanks guys. btw its for a 99 eclipse turbo.
 
Its the same belt. You have to take the adjustment bolt out of the alternator completely; that will allow the alt to swing a little more. It is still a tight fit though but you will get it with a little persuasion.
 
should be able to force them on, they fit. You just won't have to tension as much.
 
The stock belt fits on mine but I'm confused by your post as the outer belt should be alternator and water pump and the inner belt is the AC only. The power steering isn't driven by the crank at all but from the water pump.

On my car I just have to fight the alternator belt on and it is all good from there.
