Review on πŸ”§ Stretch Installer by Drake Off Road by Leo Govindan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Doesn't fit my Mazda 5 2008 AC belt

Three stars because the design is not universal. The picture shows the wrong gap which made the tool not work in my case. I tried the tool on the upper and lower AC pulleys on my 2008 Mazda 5 and it didn't fit either pulley. On the top pulley the clearance was just the right width but not deep enough. He fell over due to belt tension. The notch on the lower pulley was too narrow to fit over the pulley nose. I had to resort to other means to complete the repair. I simply used a screwdriver under the belt, turned the motor over with a socket wrench to loosen the belt from the bottom pulley, and ran the belt over the bottom pulley with my fingers, then turned the pulleys again to tighten it. . Removal and installation was much easier than what was shown to me in the YouTube video.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
