When I went to install it was clearly way to tight and would was hardly long enough to even touch the driver pulley. Did I message wrong or what? I did exactly what I says when measuring. Im confused

Pull both the driver and the driven clutches off. Lay them on the floor. Put the belt around them, and pick them up together and put them on their respective shafts at the same time. You can't just slip the belt over the clutches while they are in place.

Oh, 6 and 7/8ths. So basically 7 inches.

Where’s the pics? This crazy thread needs pics.
