I have an 8n and just lost the fan belt. The problem is that I have a Wagner loader on it and I need help with how get the belt off and then back on. The shaft for the loader pump is in the way. Any suggestions? Thanks.
 
On most it is as simple as unbolting the pump and the shaft then can be pulled out of the crank shaft coupler. You may have to unbolt the shaft from the pump to get it to come out enough to get the belt on. BTDT too many times on my 8N with loader/backhoe and on my 841 ford with loader

The front pump shaft is probably splined, and just slips into the hub on the crankshaft pulley. So just remove the bolts that hold the front pump on to the loader frame (no need to mess with the hoses), and pull it forward to get fan belt out.
 
Thanks for all the help! The link belt seems to the best solution. I removed the pump and the shaft but with the splines on the shaft I only have less that 1/4" of room. I could not remove the old belt without cutting it.
 
Those link belts work but are pretty much a get you by for a short time thing. On some of the set ups you have to pull the spline drive hub off the crank shaft pulley then replace the belt then bolt it all back together
