Anything is possible, all you need is imagination or own a bank!

sorted BUT, for some reason the belt is loose, tensioner won't tighten belt! anybody out there ideas? I fitted tensioner and tightened up then fitted belt, should I fit belt then tighten? def the right belt ( disco 2 with AC and ACE)

Usually you'd fit belt and then tension unless it's an auto tensioner. If you try and tension before it can't actually be tensioned , as what are you actually tensioning
