Hi List...

OK, I went to change out the compressor belt on my deuce because I saw
it was cracked a little bit when I did a pre-trip check.

I got a new belt at NAPA (NAPA's number is 25-9510). I loosened the
9/16 bolts on the pulley, but then I was stopped in my tracks when I
realized I needed a giant wrench to twist the pulley to loosen it.

Is there another trick to this, or do I just need to go get a giant
wrench and twist the pulley?

Please reply on the list to benefit other readers!

Thanks as always!
