This kit essentially takes care of all the front – end accessory drive components. That means the parts that run things like your alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning compressor – anything bolted to the front of the engine that isn’t directly involved in making it run, but needs power from the engine to work. The kit includes the belt itself, tensioners, pulleys, and sometimes even the water pump. It’s everything that spins together up front. Think of it as the distribution system for power. The engine creates the rotational force, and this FEAD system spreads that force to all the accessories that keep you comfortable and safe – lights, power steering, A/C, and making sure your battery stays charged. It keeps everything running smoothly beyond just the engine itself. It's a complete system, and when one part wears, it puts stress on everything else. This is one of those things that really prevents a bigger problem down the road. The belt can crack and fray over time, the tensioners can weaken, and pulleys can seize. If the belt breaks, you immediately lose all those accessories. No power steering becomes a real handful, the alternator stops charging your battery, and you'll quickly find yourself stranded. More importantly, a failing tensioner or pulley can actually damage the belt and other components, or even cause the belt to break unexpectedly. Replacing the whole kit at a regular interval, like when you do the timing belt, is just preventative maintenance. It avoids costly repairs later. You’ll notice if a pulley is getting noisy or if the belt is squealing, but sometimes the wear is gradual and you won’t really see it until it fails. You can find a good FEAD kit, along with all the other service parts you need, over at Fixparts Online – they carry a lot of quality stuff.
