Check the notes or reference photo from Step 1 to make sure the orientation is correct.

Repeat the technique used in Step 3 in reverse by feeding one corner of the folded webbing end into the buckle piece slot first, then using pliers to pull it all the way through.

Pull the webbing on each side of the buckle to ensure that it holds tension on the new piece. If the webbing slides, it may be threaded incorrectly.
