My question is how far onto the shaft should the pulley be to get them
to align? It seems there has got to be a more solid way other than eye
balling it. Since there are 5 pulleys, eye-balling alignment isn't
easy.

I replaced the serpentine belt on my 98 2400 SCR last fall. Since they
no longer make the belt, I had to buy a conversion kit which required
replacing a pulley to accomodate the new belt (Sierra 18-15116). My
question is how do you know how far to put the pulley on? I was told to
put it on flush with the stem, but am having problems of the belt
misaligning.

Not sure I understand your question. But the pulley in question has to
align with the other ones.

I would put the belt on, and then adjust the pulley until the belt is
centered thereon.
