Actually its just the tensioning part. Instead of pulling it back with a wrech and sliding the belt on and releasing it, you have to take a screwdriver or something and pull it back with the belt on it and then tighten it up. You use either the stock pulley on it or the ASP one with the higher lip.

Where do you get the pulley with the higher lip? I have been having problems with my belt slipping off the pulley also.

ASP makes the pulley with the higher lip I know Thunder Racing has them when they are not back ordered. That would be your best bet. 1-877-516-7223 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
