Yeah they do make nice ones. Kinda like the one I'm trying to buy. That I tried to buy from them but they're so ****** stupid that they can't have something that prob costs 20 bucks to make in stock.

you go out to your car and try to put a 15mm open end per gm spec on that rounded off from the factory piece of **** and come back and tell me how it works out for you putting your belt back on by yourself. it ain't gonna happen. snuggly doesn't happen either. /rant.

like i said before.
i've had it off numerous times now via the nub behind the tensioner pulley with a 15 and 14(hammered the **** on) open end wrench. it is not fun. i'd rather pay 90 bucks.

I'd just rather not deal with it. Tears my palm up everytime I take it out.
Think I might just make the damn tool myself now that I know how it works.

the tool would be nice, but if you use vice grips instead of an open wrench it works 100 times better!

Thats an even better idea

I'd have a hard time on justifying spending 90 bucks US on a tool that I might use one or twice.
