Default Belt Deflection

how would you shim the primary after changing the belt and adjust belt deflection... is it very difficult, or even necessary? I just replaced the belt on my 250 trailblazer.

thanks

Take a shim OUT of the secondary and see what you have. While you are in there measure the distance from clutch center to clutch center. Doc
