    The one I got is already new. Do I need to drop a size or should I be good??? Any odd recomendations to help it say tight would work to (wow that sounded sooo bad)

    You should be ok. There are marks on the tensioner to tell you if you are within spec.

    Search for the info on how to tell.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    I ran a 3.5" on a stock belt...and some people evenrun a 3.4"...but belt slip is nice.

    3.6" should be fine though man, don't worry.
