The rear CS pulley was used for A/C.

You can skip the CS to PS belt although it does help. I believe a double Alt pulley will allow double WP / PS belts. Belts will go around CS and WP.

If using 2 OE style belts of different length, tighten PS so rear PS belt is tight. Then tighten ALT next.

Good luck.
