    The tensioner keeps the belt at the propper tension. Hold the wrench on the tensioner, and move it so the belt is loosened. Remove the belt, and replace.

    THANK-YOU! That's great help, just what I needed. I will replace on Sat,it's like 10 deg out now here in Ohio. I used to live in Tempe, 10 years ago, boy do I miss it right now.
    You have pre-runner? Would one be able to put baby seat in back or no room?
    THANKS AGAIN!

    Glad to help! :)
    It was just over 80* today, and Im loving it!!!

    I have a Quad cab, and it fits adults in the back just fine, so I imagine a baby seat would be no problem.
