The small 3/8" drive ratchet that comes with the Craftman's 48 piece toolsets fits. That's the only thing I need when I take the belt off. The important thing is that you have to get a ratchet that has a flatter head. I always do it from the top too. It's much eaiser than jacking the car up, taking the wheel and splash guard off, just to do the same thing in the same small space but with less leverage.
