OEMTOOLS 24388 Stretch Belt Remover and Installer, 2 Piece Set Serpentine Belt Tool for Timing Belt, Fan Belt and More, Specialty Automotive Tools to Easily Install, Remove, and Reuse Stretch Belts

I ordered this to change my water pump on my Chevy! It worked great and came fast. Easy fix with Amazon.

Used on a 2008 Ford escape water pump belt, succeeded on the first try. Very happy since this is literally the cheapest stretch belt tool on Amazon.Anyone complaining about this being made from cheap plastic or breaking easily does not know how to use it correctly. Follow the instructions and it works perfectly fine even being made from plastic.

PRO: The actual shape / design is correct to install the stretch belts on Bobcat newest series loaders and excavator diesels engines.I wanted my own set, because I have used (at work) an identical set in METAL, at my work dozens of times. But they are not always put back by some of the other techs... And nothing else works as easy and simple as these tools, Especially if you plan to reuse the belt (after warranty repair the belt is still new). Removal / installation with the (dangerous) pry bar / starter bump method, will most likely damage the belt.CON: The composite (Hard Plastic Like) material is NOT strong enough for this task. MUST buy metal. I snapped my installer in half on it's second use... I grabbed the metal one and the belt was on. two other techs had a similar experience....FIND A METAL VERSION... And learn how to use it, you will be glad you did. Those belts are super hard to get started over a sharp pulley.Some guys do it all the time w/out it... But if you have to buy ONE ruined belt you could have easily paid for the METAL Tool. Shop around though... Tool trucks have them but... $$$

Instruction pictures can be a bit tricky to decode but once in place it got old belt off and new belt on in less than a minute each. Worked like a charm.

Installation tool worked as it should but from a single belt installation its marked up and mildly deformed I'll be able to use it a few more times but ultimately it does not appear very durable. I was not able to get the removal tool to work and just cut the belt off.

Cons: instructions aren't the best, the illustrations and instructions could be better.Given the Belt drive direction and pulley location the removal tool didn't work for me (perhaps user error) but I cut the belt off so not a big deal.Pro: Belt install tool worked well and held up well. Definitely helped me out.Tip. Warm up the stetch Belt before installing it. A cold belt is hard to stretch.

Worked great always used other tools for this but thought I’d try it. Well worth the money.

I had a Heck of a time installing my ac belt ( broke the first belt using screwsdrivers)but this did the trick fast, note I'm not a mechanic so this will probably last a lifetime

Me sirvió de manera excelente para instalar la banda elástica de un fiesta, un par de intentos en lo que agarraba la onda y quedó donde debía

Works as advertised, held together even used in tight quarters where it was being bent against another component in the engine bay.

Son bastante pequeñas pero muy funcionales. No son mágicas tienen su técnica para usarse pero definitivamente me ayudaron mucho y fue más sencillo la instalación de una banda nueva.

Dont waste your time or money. Broke right away and does not work at all. Crap

La herramienta no es práctica ,el material resbala mucho y es difícil instalar la banda.
