Hey everyone Im about to get my accessory drive belts changed and the auto parts store wants to know if I have sports steering or something like that...She said the ribs were different 3 or 4. Anyone know the answer to that?? Help a chick out!

I think they are talking about four wheel HICAS steering that came on only the 93 and 94 models. The power steering pump belt is slightly different in length from a regular J30. Just make sure you can return it if they give your the wrong length.

of course you can always count the ribs on your existing power steering belt.

As I recall the non-HICAS PS belt is a bit shorter and slightly narrower, and one definitely won't fit on a '93 J30t.
