The X-brace behind the grille prevents swinging a hammer with much force. Without an installation tool, you have to pound it onto the shaft after heating it up to 250 degrees F for 15 minutes (I made it 20 minutes just to be sure). An installation tool won't work because the nose of the crankshaft does not have an internal thread to screw the installer into.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>The typical crankshaft nut locking washer can't be used because it isn't possible to bend it over to lock the nut due to lack of access. It fits tightly into the recess of the damper (I had to file the outer diameter of my new Moss washer to make it fit). Use Lok-Tite instead.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>Steve Byers</span><span style='color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>HBJ8L/36666</span><span style='color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>BJ8 Registry</span><span style='color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>AHCA Delegate at Large</span><span style='color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'>Havelock, NC </span><span style='color:#002060'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#002060'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#002060'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Healeys [mailto:healeys-bounces@autox.team.net] <b>On Behalf Of </b>simon.lachlan@alexarevel.plus.com<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, October 31, 2018 7:45 AM<br><b>To:</b> Healeys<br><b>Subject:</b> [Healeys] Pro Race Harmonic Balancer<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB>Am still (just about) toying with the idea of getting a harmonic balancer.
