Cam Belt Drive Replacement

Be sure the battery is disconnected to prevent any accidental engine turnover during the service.

Belt Removal
1- Remove the belt cover.
2- Immobilize the engine by placing it in gear with the rear wheel on the ground.
3- Use special S&S socket PN 106-0750 to take the tension off of the belt tensioner. Once it is fully relieved, you can use a bolt in the lower cam

plate mounting area to hold the ratchet in place.

4- Remove the two idler pulleys at the top of the cam plate. Note their orientation: one has a bevel going towards the cam plate and the other

facing away from the cam plate.

5- Slide the belt off.

NOTE: An 11/16" open-end wrench may be used in place of S&S socket tool, PN 106-0750.

Do not bend the belt tighter than the size of the pulleys. Do not twist the belt or crease it.

Belt Installation
1- Installation of a new belt is simple, but requires the use of S&S Cam Alignment Pins, PN 106-0576 for each of the three cams.
2- Rotate the cams around until they are positioned over the alignment holes. Install the S&S Cam Alignment Pins.
3- Align the notch on the crank pulley with the FTDC mark on the cam plate.
4- Make sure the tension is removed from the belt tensioner.
5- Pass the belt around the cam gears—there is a diagram of the belt and its installation pattern inside the cam cover.
6- Install the rear idler pulley with the pulley oriented so the flange is against the cam plate. Tighten idler pulley bolt to 20 ft/lbs
7- Install the front idler pulley with the pulley oriented so the flange is on the outside of the belt. Tighten idler pulley bolt to 20 ft/lbs
8- Once you have everything aligned, release the tension on the belt tensioner.
9- Install a new gasket and replace the belt cover.

NOTEs:

3/16” by 2” long dowel pins may be used in place of S&S® cam Alignment Pins PN 106-0576.

If you do not have S&S Cam Alignment Pins or 3/16” dowel pins, the belt is marked with alignment points on its edge. Align the hole in the cam sprockets

with the alignment holes in the cam plate, align the crank pulley with FTDC, and align the belt marks with the dot on the edge of the sprockets.
