2016 forza 34t 6.7 cummins. 45,000 miles. Rear Radiator. Rear bed covers access doors to engine.

I am looking for advice/procedure on replacing belt and tensioner on my 34t. It has developed an annoying chirp/squeal. I do most work on her now. I would prefer not to remove the bed assembly.

Can this be changed from underneath?

Looking for any hints or advice you all may have. I have the new belt and tensioner. The main cover under the bed only shows the top of the engine. about 30" square cover. I would have to remove bed frame to access the second cover. That cover is smaller. Thanks in advance.

Have a 2016 34T also . When my a/c compressor seized and broke belt , Freightliner did all the repairs from under the coach . They had to remove a few things in the way ,but it was do able . I would think that if you have access from under the coach , pit , you could do all the repairs . Might have to remove the air fllter hose and canniter and something else , but all would be able to be done from underneather the engine . was told by Freightliner that not much is done from top . Good luck .
