> 3 dayI used the second rod size to pull the harmonic balancer/crankshaft pulley on my Ecoboost 2015 Expedition. Make sure the jaws are centered in the pulley, turn slightly clockwise to lock it behind the ears in the pulley, set the tension, and then start turning the center bolt. It came right off after a few minutes of turning the bolt.

> 3 dayI rented a 3 prong damper removal tool from AutoZone, but the pin that goes in the crank that forces the damper off the crank was not long enough. This ARES 71002 kit had (4) different length pins and the longest one was the right one to pull the harmonic damper on a GM LS3 engine. Tool is designed correctly as it also has a 24mm nut that you can use with a wrench to hold the crankshaft from rotating while tightening the puller bolt with a 3/4 wrench. I simply laid the end of the 24mm wrench on the frame/power steering box to hold the crank from moving. while I tightened the 3/4 wrench. The damper came off quickly without any issues! It even has a carrying case to store all the parts. Also, to hold the 3 pawls from slipping off the damper pull points, I used a small rubber band that helps to hold the pawls in place until you get enough tension on them to remove the damper. One last comment, it is super strong but compact so you dont have to pull the radiator. Check out the clearance in the second above photo.

> 3 dayThis is about the same as others on here,,, The issue i found is on some balancers you need different arms for this puller, because they need to be extended out wards bigger around... I ended up grabbing a coworkers Matco kit i think it was and it had the second set of arms that allows for a wider grab, which was a plus .... On my 2005 LS2 engine....
