Default HELP! DIY for Lightweight Crank Pulley and Belts?

I've been browsing for a while now and I still can't find any DIY installs on how to install a Crank Pulley. I'm looking into buying the 'Agency Power Lightweight Crank Pulley' and I can't find an install guide for it. I'm going to be putting this in my 2004 Scion xB RS1. A guide on installing the belts would be appreciated as well.

Thanks for your help and sorry if this is a noob question.

Edit: Also, what is the best price on these? I found one on eBay for $123 with free shipping. Is there any that are cheaper than that?

price wise, that's pretty much what you're gonna find.
the DIY is in the tech section: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=61911

Thanks, I found it just now x_x. But by any chance is there a DIY for swapping the belts?

Step 6 in the DIY for the pulley pretty much covers it. Turn the crank pulley with a wrench as you start the belt on the power steering pump and roll the belt on. Keep turning until the belt is properly aligned. The alternator is a lot easier to loosen, so the belt is easier to get on, but the same technique applies.

Good luck with it. I put on an Agency Power Pulley two years ago and it is very nice.

I highly recommend going with NonStopTuning for your lightened pulley(s). NST makes the best pulleys in the business and are excellent to deal with! They have been making pulley sets for the tC for years and are now offering a pulley setup for the 1st gen xB.
