Goodyear Serpentine Belt 8-Rib 126.5" (1081265) for Dodge & Ford Super Duty — EPDM, Long-Life

The Goodyear 1081265 serpentine belt is an 8-rib, 126.5-inch (3213 mm) Multi-V replacement designed to restore accessory drive performance in compatible Dodge and Ford Super Duty trucks.

Engineered by Goodyear Belts to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, this Multi V serpentine belt uses EPDM rubber and balanced twist polyester cords to deliver long life, quiet running, and steady power transmission for alternators, water pumps, A/C compressors, and power steering pumps. It’s supplied as an exact-fit aftermarket option for a range of heavy-duty pickup models so you can replace a worn belt with a part matched to factory fit and function.

Which vehicles and applications does this Goodyear belt fit?

This belt is listed for several Dodge Ram and Ford Super Duty trucks covering model years in the 2000s. It’s intended for standard accessory drives found on those trucks, not specialized aftermarket pulley or accessory configurations.

• Fits Dodge Ram 2500 (2003–2009, 2007–2010), Ram 3500 (2003–2007, 2007–2010), Ram 4000 (2005–2010), Ram 4500/5500 (2008–2010)
• Also fits Ford F-250 Super Duty (2003–2007) accessory drive layouts
• Use where an 8-rib, 126.5" (3213 mm) belt is specified or where part number 8PK3213 / Goodyear 1081265 is listed

How does the construction improve durability and noise control?

Goodyear’s Multi V design combines EPDM rubber compounds with polyester cords that resist heat and fatigue while keeping the ribs aligned under load. The balanced twist cords minimize lateral movement and help reduce belt squeal and vibration over the life of the belt.

• EPDM compound resists cracking and ozone degradation
• Balanced twist polyester cords maintain dimensional stability
• Multi-rib profile distributes load across multiple contact points for smoother operation

What accessories and systems will this belt drive effectively?

This serpentine belt is suitable for the common accessory components on heavy-duty trucks — wherever the factory routing calls for an 8-rib belt. It supports continuous loads and intermittent peaks typical of engine accessory operation.

• Alternator and charging system
• Engine water pump and cooling circulation
• Air conditioning compressor and climate control components
• Hydraulic power steering pump

How do I confirm this belt is right for my truck before buying?

Verify the belt length, rib count, and OEM or aftermarket part references for your vehicle’s engine and accessory layout. If you’re replacing a worn belt, compare markings on the old belt to the Goodyear part number or measure the belt length and rib profile.

• Check the old belt for 8 ribs and length marking 126.5" (3213 mm) or part 8PK3213
• Cross-reference vehicle fitment tables or your owner’s manual for serpentine belt size
• If unsure, provide your year, make, model, and engine to a parts specialist for verification

Who this is for: The Goodyear 1081265 serpentine belt is aimed at owners and technicians of Dodge Ram 2500/3500/4000/4500/5500 and early-2000s Ford F-250 Super Duty trucks who need a direct-fit, durable replacement for worn or noisy accessory belts. It suits fleet mechanics, DIYers performing scheduled maintenance, and anyone restoring proper accessory drive performance without modifying pulleys or accessory components.
