So me and a couple friends are workin on replacing my timing belt...evrythin was going fine until we tried to remove the bottom crank pulley...were using an impact gun but the nut just wont budge...any tips or tricks on how to remove this nut??...need help asap, thanks

 

Yeah, get your friend or have someone wedge the crank.

GET THE OLD TIRE IRON OUT the 4 way tire iron,( couldnt ****** believe it myself when i saw this)

my neighbor did this on my GS-R,

Get yourself a MALLET, a hammer will not work for some reason.


POUND AWAY!!!

REPOST IF IT WORKS FOR U!!!

 

I like to use like a half inch ratchet and a good 4 foot pipe on the end of the ratchet...you'll need some room because the pipe will flex when you start torquing on it but something is bound to break free.... good luck

you should get a hold of the tool that holds the pully (looks like a big *** allen with a whole in it) that hooks up to a half drive breaker bar. then get another breaker bar with a 19mm exstention for the bolt... just try not to freeze the motor by stickin something in the cam sproket. its funny watching people break those. good luck!

 

I just about broke my thumb the other night breaking mine loose. I was laying on the ground and I was using a huge wrench on the end of a ratchet as a cheater bar and when it brook loose my thumb slammed into the concrete. I had a few choice words for about 10 seconds and I lost a good amount of skin off my knuckle but it came free. The joys of wrenching

 

if all else fails, you can try "bolt breaker". worked on my some bolts an impact gun wouldn't take off. just got to let it settle for 10 minute and it came right off. good luck.

 

thanks for all the feedback...any other ideas?...

 

this guy was telling me bout crankin the motor while having a breaker on that bolt...i actually heard a few people do that and worked...my opinion? **** the bullshit...im not riskin that shiet! if it comes down to it...just bring it to the shop...good luck!
