Dont get a stock style one from Cloyes (C3072). It will stretch just like the factory one (same design). If I was to do it over I would get a good double roller Cloyes or JP.

If you have the socket/ratchet and such on there, put a little tension on it to hold it in place, and SMACK it with a big hammer. Couple good blows and it should break loose. Then you can do the rest by hand.
