|
|
Any one in brissy know where i can ge my sticky little fingers on a full kit for a gemmy?? Any suggestions are welcome! I was recomended to get super 'cheap' auto to order me one and they quoted a kit for $687.50 !!!!!!!!
That was for the three pulleys and a belt! I love the sound of a gilmer drive but im not willing to pay that sort of money for it!
thanks all |

gilmer drives are designed for vehicles with heeeps of torque that spin there drive belts |

It's a fan belt with teeth/ribs and the pulleys have teeth on em too. Designed to eliminate belt slip, due to the teeth they make a cool whistling sound. |
