I have a 1987 f150 302 5.0L and have replaced the water pump, idle pully, and belt tensioner, but the belt still squeaks, and I put a smaller belt on, and I think its stretching it.

MINOR SQUEAK.....MAJOR SQUEAK...OR A CONTINUOUS SQUEAL?

BELT OFF, DO ALL PULLEYS TURN FREELY?

OBSERVE THE INNER PART OF THE A/C PULLEY WHILE RUNNING THE CLUTCH)...DOES IT SEEM TO DRAG ALONG WITH THE PULLEY...INTERMITTENTLY W/ A/C ON OR OFF?
