Where time is getting short, why not just pull the belt and drive it around as-is to see what happens before you go through a lot of work that may have to be reversed after the trip to keep The Mrs. happy? I pulled the belt off my Jetta and drive it, but I am a lot stonger than a lot of people and do admit it is a bit stiff under 5mph. Something I have been wondering, as you turn with the hydraulic lines plugged off, would it also work against the steering?
