If the belt is good AND clean as described above, replacing the clutch is an uncomplicated process. Basically four steps which does not involve jacking up the cart. All work is completed with the seat lifted off.

1. Remove the belt.
2. Remove the retaining bolt and washer then pull off the old clutch.
3. Slide on the new clutch then replace the washer and bolt then torque to 21-24 lb-ft.
4. Replace the belt.

I have the service manual for a 2020 but the procedure should be identical.
Are you speaking about the Primary or Secondary replacement? Most often the issue is the Secondary. I have had two replaced.
