Customer Questions and Answers for Drive Belt by Ge

Hello Annette. Replacement belts on all front load washers appear to be too small and can be a bit difficult to install, but this is "Normal". "Per Factory Measures 48.4" At Rest & 51.2" When Working". As you can see there is some "stretch" in the belt when the washer is operating. The way to get the belt on is to put it on the motor pulley first. Once you have it on the motor pulley then you will start it around the tub pulley and making sure that you hold it, spin the tub pulley away from where the belt is on the pulley as to turn it on and it will go on but you have to hold it as you do this.
