I had the same problem when I had mine, every standard listing was so short you couldnt even get it on, had to go a couple of sizes up to get one that would even go over the pulleys and that was a couple of different suppliers. I think there must be different pulley setups on some models, mine had the ones where both go around the water pump, but one goes to p/s, the other alt. But the alternator also had a double row pulley suggesting that maybe other models have dual alternator belts like a lot of other diesels
