Gareth 0 Posted February 25, 2004 Lol Henny :lol: .... sweet thou m8.. Just to add a question... this kit eliminates belt slip but what are the drawbacks? ..... Do bearings suffer as a result of no slip under load? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted February 25, 2004 Lol Henny :lol: .... sweet thou m8.. Just to add a question... this kit eliminates belt slip but what are the drawbacks? ..... Do bearings suffer as a result of no slip under load? only if you over tension the belt... :) Drawbacks are belt life is nowhere near what the original non-toothed belt's life is... but belts are cheap, so what the hell! ;) I suppose that the extra noise could also be taken as a drawback.... but I kinda like it, so again, what the hell! ;) :lol: :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gareth 0 Posted February 25, 2004 sweet thanx for info.... just 1 more question. the charger tensioner is that spring n strut item which also keeps belt under tension, im assuming the later.... when fitting this kit is the original tensioner ok to be used or is there an aftermaket item required?
