1 wrench vs 10 that belt can get awful heavy after some time up top.Last time I went up to install a rotor cable for my G 1000DXA when I went to slip the weather boot on I noticed the metal sleeve for the plug cover was loose.You know I didn't have a screwdriver that small with me!Down & back up Less weight more use sounds good to me.
