1) Disconnect the battery to avoid any accidental shorts that could ruin your electronics and your day 2) Remove the serpentine belt and check for wear and replace if necessary. 3) Thoroughly clean all the surfaces and areas in & around the stock pulleys. 4) Run a tap thru the mounting holes in the crank pulley to remove any rust or debris. Scrape the inside of the pulley to clean any rust , dirt etc so the MBA pulley cover that has a ridge that fits into the stock pulley will go in without binding. 5) Test fit the MBA cover to make sure everything mates properly. 6) Spread some Loc-Tite on the end of one of the bolts supplied with the kit and insert the bolt thru the MBA pulley cover then align the bolt with one of the threaded holes in the crank pulley. Tighten the bolt a few turns to make sure it is in straight then install the remaining bolts tightening them evenly so the MBA cover does not bind when the ridge enters the pulley. 7) Repeat above steps on the remainder of the pulleys except the Idler pulley. 8) The Alternator Pulley is slightly different because you have to remove the stock pulley to install the MBA pulley. 9) To remove the stock pulley you will need a strap wrench or similar tool to
keep the pulley from turning while you loosen the nut. Once you have the nut
removed you can slide the the pulley off and clean the alternator before
installing the MBA pulley and cap. You 10) Now you have to install the serpentine belt. To do this you have to relieve the tension on the idler pulley. This is why you have to put that cover on last. If you don't you will not have access to bolt that holds the idler pulley on and enables you to relieve the tension so you can get the serpentine belt on. 11) Next install the Idler Pulley Cover the same way you did the rest. 12) The last step is to check all the bolts to make sure you tightened them all. You don't want them coming loose while your driving and destroying your engine, radiator or hood.
