Frayed Belt, Need Replacing? (pics)

[Lachlan33]

The other week I noticed one of the belts was abit mauled up. Im taking my car up the coast (6 1/2 hour drive) tomorrow night and am wondering if the belt in question is going to be a major deal if it snaps. I was wondering if someone could tell me what its for? (Please say AC or something i can live without for a couple days)

Anyway here are the pics

thanks guys

Looks like a power steering belt to me.. the good news is its the easiest to change out of all of them, the bad is that the others may not be in the best condition if they havent been changed in a while.

do you really need to ask if that needs replacing? look at it!

ok well yes I know it needs replacing, im just wondering what exactly it is givent hat I might not be able to get it replaced by tomorrow night. My worry is that IF it breaks during the drive im going to be stuck on the side of the road.

(It was the power steering belt)

Air con and Alternator belts getting done as well so all good.
