Belt cogs are getting thin,I have a good replacement.Rear pulley cogs showing a lot of wear,have good replacement!!!front pulley and belt and rear pulley have112,000 miles on them.But as I see it I think I can use front Pulley again with newer belt and newer rear pulley.What do you Guys Think?This is on my 1996 S2T with total mileage of 132,000 miles.Hope I don,t need to buy front pulley,(trans-out-put-pulley)???

Trans pulley is steel, wheel pulley is aluminum - if I recall correctly. Front one should last a lot longer...unless you're seeing cracking or goofy wear patterns, leave it on there and go another 132k!

With that many miles, I'd at least inspect th inside of the front pulley at the same time....

and then adjust belt appropriately
