How do I tighten my belt on a 05 rd king
Pull the clip out of the rear axle lock nut, loosen it, the at the rear of a the swing arm there are 2 adjusters, one on each side. Loosen the lock nut and turn the screw until the belt gets tight. Make sure you turn each side EVENLY, or you will **** the wheel to the right or left. Tighten up the lock nuts and torque the big axle nut to about 55-65 foot/lbs, replace clip. But seriously, I would let a dealer do this. The rear belt is supposed to have a certain amount of deflection with 10 lbs pressure applied to it. The dealer will have the proper tool to check this.
