Default Help with 74 Power steering pump adjustment

Still jacking with the PS. I'm going to get this thing put on yet. It might leak but it will be on.
I have the new ps pulley ps bolted on. I manged to get the pump mounted - everything is bolted on. I put the belt on but I cant get it to tighten up enough. Its like there is not enough adjustment on the bracket -it all the way back. Think its the wrong belt ?? :banghead:

Sounds like it. Measure around the pulleys with the PS pump adjusted as far in as it will go and get a belt that long.
