vx ss fan belt snapped

[Sir VxSs]

hey fellaz my fan belt snapped today whilst driving!! ive bought another belt just wondering do i need any special tool to fit it cheers?

[crewsy]

I didnt know LS1's had fan belts...

[crewsy]

sure you dont mean the serpentine belt?? i thought they have electic fans

[anarklov3r]

Im pretty sure thats what he means

You dont need a special tool. You just need a big socket wrench thingy to loosen the belt tensioner so you can slip the belt on, then tighten it up again.
