Looking for any tips to replace a broken belt on a 1997 air nautique running an Apex engine without taking the full front end off. I've unbolted the impeller bracket from the block and can rotate the impeller housing some, however there is a bottom bolt on the impeller housing that is still too close to the floor board where I can slide the belt underneath. Looking for help on anyone that's done this without taking the full front housing off. I"m thinking I could remove the fuel cell and main water hose to rotate the bracket up further but was hoping others had more help to offer.

Apex! crank driven water raw water pump? un bolt the two bolts on the pump retention bracket and slide the belt around the bracket.

I had that initial plan to slide it over the bracket, however there is a 3rd bolt on the bottom side of the impeller housing that is almost touching the floor board where I can't slide the belt past it (and don't want to pull it across to damage the belt).
