For 8 bucks not bad. If you can borrow one, even better. Made swapping out the AC belt all too easy. |

Thanks.
The only additional comment is that the pics on the web site show the tool being used on the front. On our cars, it goes on the back of the Crank Pulley. Slipping the belt over the AC pulley first, I placed the tool on the back, at the top and slipped as much of the belt on as I could. The tool keeps it in place. Start turning the crank bolt clockwise and the belt goes on, tool drops free. |

Just FYI there is a different tool if you need to do a Subaru, it costs about $28.00.
