<VV> Special Russ Davis harmonic balancer puller

[S M]

You don't need a puller.... there are 2 threaded holes in the hub that I put 2 fully threaded 2" bolts into... tighten them up evenly and the balancer pops off. People will tell you this will crack the housing, but the bolts seat on the steel flange of the old seal, not the casting. I've never had a problem, YMMV. 
yea, Vairily ... Shaun 


went south. I went into the bed of my pickup scrounging thru parts. 
Meanwhile, Smitty and my son Mike, an outstanding wrench, found a balancer 
in the trailer. Smitty told Mike, I know Chuck has one of Russ' tools for 
that. By the time I came out of the pickup bed with a balancer, Mike was 
finishing up installing the balancer and had only the fan belt to replace. 
Really a worthwhile addition to your tool box.

Unless you have a special puller you need to drop the rear of the engine 
about 10" to remove the harmonic dampener. The rest is easy.
