  • Do it your self flywheel puller

    Some washers, threaded-rod, a couple flange nuts, three bolts, a welder, and grinder! Walla, you have a flywheel puller. Savings of about a $100.

    another easy way is to use a regular automotive harmonic balancer puller. You can usually buy one for under 30. or rent one at some of the local parts stores worked great.

          I bought another puller today at autoparts for 18 bucks. It worked out good.

                I had a pretty good load on mine and it wouldn't pop, so I used a heat gun at center for aprox 3min. and pop!

                  I used the same procedure as well. Luckily I read some threads here prior to taking off my flywheel off because I was going to use a torch but learned I would have damaged my crankshaft seal in doing so.
