    Yea you could replace the hardware, might were tight when I removed them so I cant see how it could have slipped unless the clearances were out. Either way all the best to ya man.
    Traction is optional, so are zipties

      There is another problem with poor quality pulleys. They may wear out the belt faster. You may want to watch out for that if you decide to use them.

            They are good, the hardwear is chinzy but that is easily fixed. 90% of Chinese part failure is human error in install and/or fastener insufficiency. The button head bolts look nice but the thread size is small, switch to a standard Allen head bolt and upsize the threads at the same time and you will be fine. 242 Loctite is a very good idea too.
