Best way to remove the serpentine belt. Anybody wanna help? Title says it all. I found this while searching. I also found a $125.00 tool.
Any tips or tricks?

Here is my tool.
it fits over the center boss on the ps pulley. Rotate it towards the back (lubed with soap) and work the belt off. I got it off in 5 minutes, with a 5 month old strapped to my chest (seriously...). Put it back on in about 10 minutes, without the help of the baby
For the sake of getting this build done, and hearing the results, I would ship it to you to use if you could cover shipping.

Thank you so much man, I'll keep you guys posted. I'm just waiting for my OPSU adapter now, for now LOL.
I am going to install my alt bracket tomorrow though.. just to get it out of the way and to make pulling that rear intake bolt out much easier. I'm also going to give the belt a good cleaning just for preventive maintenance
