Belt aligning

[exwinger]

When adjusting the belt for alignment , does the trailer hitch need to be removed ?

Yes

Thanks Lamont , mine is going to the dealers tomorrow and they were complaining that they had to take the hitch off. From what I've read on the forum removing it isn't really that big of a deal .Just wanted to be sure they weren't trying to send me down the garden path again. It def. needs alignment , rubbing the sprockey shiny with "0" clearance on sprocket side. I've been hearing the clicking noise just about from the day I bought it and was told it was normal , after checking and seeing the belt I realized it wasn't normal. I can't see anything good running it this way , either a torn belt or bad bearings ?
