Pix of belt change plus upgrades
I took my TK1 trailer over to his place and hauled it to my house so we could work on it.
Got it on the lift and started tearing things apart.

Putting the primary back together. While it was apart, we upgraded to a Barnett clutch with an added plate and disk. Put on a Baker compensator sprocket, a new chain and tensioner. Had to grind down a fin on the inner primary for clearance on the comp. sprocket (per Baker instructions).
