Crank pully nut thread quetion
 

Can someone tell me if the bolt that holds the crank pully on is a right hand or left hand thread. Tried undoing it with a impact gun but it wont budge.

right handed :)

Thanks Tone lt must be done up bloody tight as i tried undoing it with a snap on 18v impact gun and it never budged

When i did mine i put on a socket and bar, wedged the bar and gave the key a quick turn, its a trick i often used, it works a treat.
Caution, make sure socket bar is well on and do not get in way just in case.

i do this as well, just make sure it is a FLICK and no more, also might be worth slideing somthink infront of the a/c rad or fmic just in case.

Trouble is the engine is out

Yes mate, any more than a flick and things get interesting.
I have used this method from the days i was building and racing bangers.
I must pop some pics up of a few after a demo derby.

use a decent air gun lol


what you can do is use the uppipe braket like this if the gear box is off.

Thanks Tone ,thought of doing that but was going to use a set of molegrips but that bracket sounds ideal. Will try tomorrow with a breaker bar
