Brilliant. Did the job perfectly without sticking screwdrivers in flywheels etc. Very clever.
Brilliant! - Why didn't I think of that, and here I was looking to buy yet another special tool for my 04 Tundra.
@mrexecutive1 I started out 6 years old handing my father wrenches as he was restoring his '66 GTO (The red convertible at the beginning of many vids) at 14 I bought my own car and did a frame on restoration and from there I have had more formal school and training.
Thanks for the information! I built one and was able easily to tighten up the bolt.
Good idea. As you know, special tools are the biggest irritation for the backyard mechanic.
How many inches was each hole frm the main center hole???plz and thanks
Thank you for the great idea! Since most holder tools are made out of metal most of us would think we would have to make something out of metal to make a DIY tool but you've shown us that would is plenty strong!
this is a great idea but the wood just snaps at like 90 ft-lbs
Gotta make same thing for my 1UZ, thanks for the tip.
that is the most inexpensive and simple home made tool for that purpose...brilliant :D
I just did this thank you for the idea! I broke 2 2x4s before I decided to just make one out of angle iron. it worked great
great idea and very simple,going to make one tomorrow now,thanks man
Thank you for watching!

This Was Beautiful.. Home Depot here I come

+Low Spec Gaming Thanks for watching. We're glad you liked it. 1aauto.com 866-403-3393
Looks exactly like my 96 audi a4 engine, thanks for the help
Thanks for checking us out. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
I am guessing the same method can be used to loosen the bolt, too.
Actually Northern Tool has a pulley holder for $12.99
Can you send me a link? I need a pulley holder for a 1998 lexus gs400 V8. I cant find one
Genius! I have watched almost all your videos, I always wondered how did you learn to fix cars? did you go to school?
so the pulley mark has to align with the timing mark?
Mine snapped the first time.
Can you specify what size the "Harmonic balancer puller" bolts were?
+Ryan Kelleher Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we do not have the exact specs on what was used on the vehicle. However you can usually rent a puller tool from local auto parts stores and it will have a selection of bolts to use! 1aauto.com
8mm, 1.25 pitch
What does the timing mark have to do with anything? Am I missing something? The covers on, all your belts are on and turning the crank is just gonna turn the engine.. what am I missing?
Didn't work for me. The 2x4 just cracked apart and the 8mm bolts bent.
Same results here.
Same results here
Same lol
I’m gonna try an oak board.
Board broke immediately
Does this work to get the bolt loosened as well? What a pain in the neck this has been... I really prefer not spending 100 bucks on a tool i will only use once.
what is the spacing between the two m8 bolts?
If you don't get an answer on this, just measure the distance between the holes on your harmonic balancer.
Wicha type of Penta
Cheaper to buy the tool now 😂😂😂
Mechanics makes the tools, tools dont make the mechanic.
Tried this and the 2x4 split in two :(
I ended up using an Arnold 20" universal lawnmower blade which has a "-- o --" hole pattern (slots instead of holes for the two bolts which worked out perfectly for adjustable spacing, but the hole in the middle was too small for a 22MM socket. Let me tell you it took me 3 drills and 4 bits to get the hole large enough and nearly gave up but managed to fit a non-impact socket through my final result. The impact was just a hair too wide. For anyone else trying this, I _highly_ recommend just buying the correct tool as shown on many other videos. I was desperate to get the job done and could not wait the week it was going to take from an online order, but in hindsight, I would have started working on this only after getting the correct tools.
Do you guys sell this wood specialty tool. Jk 👍👍
They dropped a V8 into a T100?
This is total crap.. the board snaps and is a PITA... 👎👎👎
