Belt is good and tight now

Belt squeaking was driving me crazy and even though I thought the belt was tight enough, moved and squeaked the old stretcher . Swapped it for this one and now it doesn't creak anymore.

Pros
  • Patented labyrinth seal protects internal components to meet or exceed OE life expectancy
Cons
  • Could have opted for a newer model
