You do have to be careful with wrenches not to not break the pulleys, but there is a big preload nut for the spindle bearings that sits above the top of the head, I just glued a bored-out pulley to it. That turned out to be too fragile, so I put a piece of PC board stock under the nut and glued the pulley to that, figuring a glass-epoxy board would be good for adhering more epoxy to, and it has held for years. So, the pulley is close, but not actually in the way at all, at least on my machine, which I think is identical to the X2.
