Having trouble getting serpentine belt on adjustment pulley. The original adjustment bolt was broken when the belt broke the second bolt was purchased from junk dealer but was from a Grand Cherokee and it also broke when trying to install it. Are there any special directions or can I get a diagram to help with the installation so that the belt goes on and the bolt doesnt break.

Thank you so much for any help you can give me.
