I GOT  IT! You remove the fan belt AROUND the WHOLE A/C belt and both its
pulleys!  Trick!
I think I would do this if I often took long  trips in hot weather. And
I'd replace the spare belt periodically, just as  though it were in use.

In the unlikely situation that someone has installed the old crown bolt-on  
adapter in place of the oil filter - One that feeds the oil out to a remote  
filter and/or cooler. This "extra-belt" tip works equally well. IN this case it  
allows you to install a new belt without removing the oil filter/cooler 
lines.  It worked for me on the road in 1973, when I finally tossed a belt on the 
way to  school one evening. - Seth
