Hicas power steering pump BELT

[wrxn240]

I would to my local auto parts store, and they can't pull up the power steering pump belt for the hicas. Does anyone with hicas have the specs on the belt?

its 4 ribs. same length as non-hicas. i currently have the 3 rib one on my hicas. I has a squealing problem with both the 4 and 3 rib ones so i cant say much. I will prolly get a 4 rib for it. i think rock auto has one for four wheel steering as they call it or just buy it according to specs locally.

sorry, i gave you the wrong belt. it should be Bando 4pk990. i'll measure in a second. 39.5 inche by 9/16. the other one was alternator which was 31.25 by 9/16.

Rock auto seems to only sell the 3 rib belts:

ACDELCO Part # 3K395 {K03 13/32" x 40 1/4" #88932493}

my belt could be as long as 39.75. i'm using a string to measure it.
