Description
Product Overview
The 6PK2315 serpentine belt is engineered for 1995-1997 Jeep Cherokee XJ and Wrangler YJ/TJ models with 2.5L and 4.0L engines. At 91.14 inches (2315mm) effective length with a 6-rib profile, this belt provides reliable, quiet power to your alternator, power steering pump, water pump, and A/C compressor.
A worn belt on a Jeep isn't just annoying — it's a reliability risk. When you're crawling trails or commuting in traffic, you need every accessory at full capacity. Replace at the first sign of squealing or cracking. Our EPDM rubber outlasts OEM neoprene belts at a fraction of the dealer price.

Why Choose iFJF
Jeep owners know: reliability matters. A serpentine belt failure means no alternator, no water pump, and a very bad day — especially off-road. Our 6PK2315 is manufactured to OEM specs with EPDM rubber that handles heat, dust, and vibration better than factory belts. Don't pay dealership markup for the same quality.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the 6PK2315 fit my 1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ?
A: Yes. The 6PK2315 (91.14" effective length) is the correct belt for 1995-1997 Jeep Cherokee XJ with 2.5L I4 or 4.0L I6 engines equipped with A/C. It also fits 1995-1997 Jeep Wrangler YJ and early TJ models.
Q: How does this compare to the dealer belt?
A: The 6PK2315 is manufactured to the same specifications as OEM part #53010269AA but at a fraction of the dealer price. Same EPDM rubber, same 6-rib profile, same cord technology.
Q: Will a worn belt affect my Jeep's performance?
A: Absolutely. A slipping belt reduces alternator output, decreases power steering assist, and can cause overheating. Off-road, belt reliability is critical — you don't want a failure miles from pavement.
Q: What tools do I need for installation?
A: A 3/8" or 1/2" drive ratchet/breaker bar to release the tensioner. The tensioner on the 4.0L is on the passenger side and easily accessible. 15-20 minute DIY job.
Q: How do I confirm this is the right belt size?
A: Check your existing belt for numbers printed on the backing. The 6PK2315 is 91.14 inches (2315mm). Verify against your under-hood belt routing sticker and compatibility table.
