Just wondering if anyone has used the 531 belt for the 2018 G4 on a XM yet or any info on using them on the T3

Doo has now lowered the price on the 531 belts. The belts are the same dimension, but the 531 is harder and stronger. So yes it will work on the xm.

Not about the cost more about exploding a belt on a pull. Turple in Red deer said that is the belt the 391 changes up to so just wanted to confirm. Belt was 220 so close to price of a 391 I believe
Thanks for replies

Took one 391 back to the dealer this week, after buying two last year and having one 391 blow up on turbo sled second day and taking reeds out on over rev

the new replacement 531 seems closer to the Carlisle belt, no problems yet with them

Inspect, clean and set deflection on your belt shouldn't have any problems. Get 2000k on a belt. Only blown one belt on my old XM as I was pushing it late in the season.
