i'm needing to adjust my belt on a 15 tri. what's the best way to support it while i do it? just two floor jacks ? jackstands and where to put them ? axle tube or under the rear body support ? just bgetting the wheels off looks to be tough. THANKS !

I"m new to trikes but have turned wrenches on my two wheeler's for years. I just installed a lift kit on my 16 Tri and i used the two screw jacks out of my trucks and placed them under the tow hooks on the axle(the jacks had the perfect top for this) and jacked each one up a little bit at a time,then i placed two jack stands under the rear of the trike on the steel cross members between the mufflers,( not on the trunk floor ) worked great.Used a bungee cord around the front brake lever to keep it from rolling forward or you can use a tire chock.Be sure to break the lug nuts loose before jacking it up if you plan on removing the tires.Hope this helps.
just wondering if anyone sees their belts tighten up some when the weather gets hot ? set mine at 7/16 cold and it was very confortable outside when i did it, now that's it's gotten hot out the adjustment is at 3/8.
