I picked up a nice 2008 73k mile Hemi powered Chrysler Aspen a couple weeks ago.

I'm going through the vehicle to get it ready for some upcoming road trips.

I replaced the original shocks yesterday which made a huge improvement.

I'm now checking out a faint belt squeal/chirp that starts at about 1500 rpms and seems to go away at 2000 rpms and above.

I would like to loosen the tensioner and check it and the idler pulleys and alternator pulley and replace anything that's bad.

The front drive belt system is buried.

It appears removing the air box lid, tubing and box itself will give me some access from the side but the fan shroud is still in the way and looks to be a PIA to remove.

For those who've been there, done that, with these Hemi powered SUV's is there something else I'm missing in getting access to the front of the engine?

Thanks.
