OEMTOOLS 27306 Long-Reach Harmonic Balancer/Pulley Installer

Because harmonic balancers are responsible for dampening the vibrations within the crankshaft, it may be difficult to start your car if this piece is damaged. Luckily, the OEMTOOLS 27306 Long-Reach Harmonic Balancer/Pulley Installer can help. This long reach harmonic balancer installer tool makes it easy remove a bad balancer and install a new one. First, apply lubricant to the sealing surface of the harmonic balancer. Then, align the keyway on the harmonic balancer with the woodruff key on the crankshaft, press the balancer in place, thread the harmonic balancer forcing nut onto the lead screw, and thread the assembly into the crankshaft. Then, you can use a wrench to hold the lead fastener in place while using a second wrench to tighten the nut until it is snug. To remove the tool, loosen the forcing nut and remove the lead fastener. This harmonic balancer installation tool is very effective due to the puller arms having a significant bite to grip onto the harmonic balancer. These arms not only reduce the risk of stripped threads inside the crankshaft, but they also reduce the risk of broken crank bolts. Using this OEM harmonic balancer installer will save you both time and money, as repairs to a harmonic balancer could cost you over $600 and hours of waiting time for repairs to be finished at a dealership. The fasteners in this harmonic balancer puller and installer kit fit a variety of V8 and V6 vehicles. The puller arm sizes include M16 x 2.0 mm (GM), M14 x 1.5 mm (Dodge, Chrysler, and Jeep), M12x 1.75 mm (Dodge Chrysler, and Jeep), M12 x 1.5 mm (Ford). All of these pieces in this crank pulley installer set fit into one convenient package, so the pieces are easy to store and find when you need them. This crank pulley removal tool is perfect for all your harmonic balancer repair needs.
