How do you change a serpentine belt on a 1997 jeep grand cherokee six (4.0)?

There is a tensioner pulley on the top of the engine. My suggestion is, if there is no diagram sticker on the hood or radiator mount, take a photo of the engine before you remove the old belt. Or you can purchase a repair manual from your nearest auto parts store.

You will pull on the tension pulley and the belt will be easier to remove. Then let the tension release on the pulley, install the new belt and pull the tension pulley and do the final install and release the pulley.

usually you loosen the alternator, it is adjustable so you can get the belt off, then put the new belt on and reposition the alternator.
