03 mach 1 serpentine belt

trying to put one on now, how do you unload the belt tensioner so you can get the belt on?

surely it isnt as hard as I'm makingit out to be...............or do I have to tow it to you in pieces? Smile

You need to be at least 5' 10" to perform that task

Should take a 3/8 or 1/2 drive rachet, you can use a torque bar for a little extra leverage to release the spring loaded tensioner.

Sorry to disappoint you.. I will not be there..

but it should have a nut on the front of the tensioner to put a socket/wrench on..
