quick drive belt install tips??

[kylant]

Jeez, I have tried everything to install the new QD2 sprocket and belt. I simply cannot get it to go.
I have tired my belt install guide tools, zip tie trick, muscling it. Nothing. can't get it to go.

Any suggestions?
Stock original axys gear and belt go on without much difficulty

with just a little finesse, they went on fairly easily today

Good to hear it worked, shaping with a couple zip ties usually works if you can have an extra hand to rotate the jackshaft.

I’ve noticed when I’m putting a QD belt on............Frustration is usually a key element in failure.

Yep.... similar to installing skids with new tracks.... solo.
