My problem now is actually press fitting it. The instructions say to use the previous bolt to push the damper in. I can't get the bolt threaded to even start the press and even if I could, I'd be worried I didn't have enough thread purchase to ensure it wouldn't strip. I've tried all of the damper installer rentals around here and none of them even came close to reaching. This
"long reach" harmonic balancer installer that comes today will be my latest attempt. Is there an installation tool out there that you guys know of to get this done?
Additionally, I wanted to take the damper off to relube everything for the press fit, but the previous removable tool I used won't work on this damper. The ones that screw into the damper also don't have a center base large enough and begin to seat themselves INTO the crank when I begin tightening. Is there a removal tool out there that will work with this setup?
