Not impressed with this tool kit.

Tool broke trying to remove a pulley from a 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan. The tool is likely strong enough to install the pulley. I haven't tried the rest of the kit.

Pros
  • To extend the life of the belt and belt tensioner.
Cons
  • protection.

Pros
  • They also provide quieter, smoother accessory drive and reduced cab vibration.
Cons
  • Hard to say.
