Re: How do I get out the harmonic balancer bolt from hell !!!!!!

I live in Northern KY. And yeah the bar I used was actually a 1/2 inch drive. It was just a craftsman circa 1988 era when craftman tools were worth a damn. I gaurantee you I would have broken a new craftsman breaker bar if I had used on this.

its a awsome gun. the guys in the shop come and get mine if they have a crank bolt they cant remove.

The guy came in to repai the hoist and couldnt remove the bolts on the top with a 6ft braker bar. I beat it with my gun for 30sec and snaped the bolt in half and it was about 1" to 1 1/4" thick shank

Dad and me made sure not to clean up and walk in thru the clothing department

*L* I guess my impressions were wrong then. Who does make good tools though. I work on cars constantly now so I need some good ---- that doesn't break.
