    Default Belt Tension for RT

    Good day all. Just two quick (I hope) questions.

    What is the currently accepted "correct" tension setting for a 2011 RT drive belt?

    If you are using an aftermarket belt tensioner (I am using DOC's), do you need to disable it or factor it in to the final tension setting?

    As always, I appreciate your feedback.

    Default Doc's tensioner...

    Only places 6 or 7 lbs. on the belt so I don't believe it's even a detectable amount of pressure on the belt when you are adjusting the belt tension. If you feel it's an issue just zip tie it up off the belt and then set the belt tension.
