Changing drive belt on TXT

SmokeyMcDope · 01-09-2008, 06:54 PM

I just got a new shorter belt for my 98 TXT. I spent a couple hours trying to roll it on with no luck. Is there a trick I'm missing or would I be better off not even trying to roll it on? I'm trying to avoid anything that uses more than an adjustable wrench since I loaned my brother in law most of my tools.

Thank ya.

Just now go it on. Popped it in the microwave for 45 sec then got my neighbor to help roll it on. That worked in bout 5 min compared to hours before.

Roll it off the secondary first an you can slip it off the primary. Then just replace it with a new one the same way you took the first one off.
