Goodyear Gatorback's

Here is the link to the Goodyear site that will give you the part numbers for your 98. Fill in the info on the top. The two belts your looking for are listed at the bottom of the page.

I got my Gatorback at Kragen's. Go in and just tell them what you want.........they'll also match anyone else's lowest price if you have some proof. They did for me!

I use Goodyear Gatorbacks as well, you'll need to have 2 belts for the top and bottom.
