Subject:Re: 1982 Westfalia Diesel ( stock ) belts?

I use a single spare stud for this. After I take out one of the three
bolts I hand thread the stud into the hole before removing the other two
bolts. This keeps the parts lined up while I replace the belts. When I
have it back together loosely I take the stud out and put in the last
bolt. Then I evenly tighten all 3 bolts around and around until tight.
