I have replace 10+ broken alternator belts in the last 3 months. I have replaced a bely power steering pump pulley (with a used power steering pump assy from a salvage yard), replaced the alternator with a new one and a complete set of belts all the way around. The belt I replaced yesterday lasted less than 50 miles. No one can seem to figure out what is going on.

Check the pulley assembley(s) for burrs and or wear.
Make sure you have it torqued properly.
