#48429, "AFX pulley belt problem FIXED!"




          

I have been loosing belts for a while now and I finaly fixed it. I went over to hurricane GS's house and he used his torque wrench to tighten up the pulley to 105 ft/lbs. It was really loose. He turned it quite a bit untill it fianlly got torqued to the right specs. I have tested it out since then and the belts have stayed on even when revving it up to 7200 rpm a few times. I am so glad I finally have power steering again. I have been without it for a few weeks. It feels liek I am driving a damn cadilac now. So if your belts are comign off make sure your pulley is torqued to 105ft.lbs.
