Nice to see you do this without any fancy tools, the same way one rolls on a bicycle chain. Some companies really push their little tool, presumably for smaller pulleys.

I second that. A lot of things can be done without special tools. Young guys get caught up in the rabbit hole of specialty tools till they're broke.

Use zip ties around the belt through the harmonic balancer and as you rotate the engine the belt will go right on

Thanks so much man!!!!! Very simple and perfectly explained. I was worried about how I would replace it on my car without the special A/C belt tool but I was able to replace the belt on a 6.2 LS3 in just a few minutes after watching this.

I use a heavy duty zip tie through the balancer to hold the belt, that way my hand is free to hold the belt on the compressor side.

This worked for me on my 2011 Ford f150 5.0. I didn't have as much room behind the crank wheel, but I got to slip behind it enough to get it on the AC pulley. I used 3 heavy duty zip ties and took my time turning the crank pulley. It went on, but I had to rotate back and forth to get it into the groves on the pulley wheels. Thank you so much for this video! I did it in half an hour!

@Navajowelder505
@Navajowelder505 8 месяцев назад
@jessemendoza2991 No noise I just replaced it because the front pulley was leaking. So I figured I might as well replace ac belt too since it's easy to repair now. Oil was leaking no noise though.

@liamgrandmont2777
@liamgrandmont2777 4 месяца назад
Dumb question but I’m a broke kid and can’t afford to replace my compressor okay so, I’m pretty sure my compressor is seized since the small “strech belt” seems to be just rubbing against it with no movement on the pulley and a horrible squealing noise i believe it just connects back to the crank I have a serpentine belt which powers the water pump, alternator etc… but what I’m wondering is if I can unplug the ac clutch connector from the compressor and cut the small belt off completely and just leave it off since I can’t afford the compressor as I mentioned. Am I able to still drive it this way without obviously having no ac would I be damaging my engine or anything?

Now being a mechanic since I was old enough to loose my father's 3 tools hammer,pipewrench and a bigger hammer, you think I would have been smart enough to watch this video instead of spending 2hrs loosing every impossible to get bolt on the compressor knowing dam well it has to adjust! A f#@!%$# stretch belt ?? Now I have honestly seen it all and I'm seriously thinking it's time to retire!!
@mediocreman2
@mediocreman2 Год назад
I was hopeful about this method, but unfortunately it didn't work. The most annoying thing is the 24mm bolt is rounded so the socket falls off constantly. You need 3 hands to do this. What did work was a small wrench under the belt with the box end turned out. But unfortunately once it was on the crank side, the belt slipped into the crack behind the a/c pulley. Which meant I had to reverse the engine to get the belt out, which is bad. However, I did eventually get it to stay on. I just read about the zip tie method. I'll try that next time.

The AC and drive belt have nothing to do with timing of the engine. So it’s ok to rotate the engine.

You can rotate the engine clockwise, but if you rotate the engine counterclockwise and there's a problem with the timing chain/belt tensioners, it could potentially jump timing and potentially destroy the engine.
