TODDMO,
With the belt through the tensioner swivel pulley, detach the belt from the idler pulley, but leave it in place on all other locations.
Let's label the bolts as to their proximity to the front bumper.
1. The highest bolt goes through
a. top portion of the brace
b. top end of the shock
c. into the block.
2. The variable mid-level bolt goes through
a. the forward most hole in the tensioner swivel arm
b. the bottom end of the shock
c. into the tensioner swivel arm.
3. The lowest bolt goes through
a. bottom portion of the brace
b. into the center hole in the tensioner swivel arm.
Using a 24" 1/2" ratcheting breaker bar and a 17mm socket, SLOWLY push the tensioner pulley toward the firewall, then place the belt over the idler pulley, and gently relax the pressure on the breaker bar.
VOILA!!
Happy Trails!
