Yes, better safe than sorry with the timing chain. I don't envy you having the camera in the way while you're stretching to reach everything. Beard looks good. 😎
Hello, awesome work, I love your videos. Do you maybe know the bolt thread pattern, size, pitch you used for the harmonic balancer puller? I live in EU and I have to buy those imperial ones in specialised store because we only have metric over here. It would be a great help, thanks.
I think so. I had so many things to do including the radiator replacement and core support that I pretty much had to remove the hood. Thanks for watching and sending in a comment!
Hey just trying to take timing pulley off but when ever I try to unscrew center bolt it turns the harmonic balancer taking it off top dead center. How do I stop harmonic balancer from spinning as well? Do I need an impact?
You should be able to just rotate the balancer back to its original position as it should still be connected to your crankshaft. I was able to rotate the HB easily without needing the leverage of the pulleys.
I used this tool set to pull off the old HB and install the new HB. It is the Powerbuilt Kit 12 - Harmonic Balancer puller & Installation Set 648637. You can find it at Amazon.com or Amazon.ca.

I like watching your video since I’ve done this job myself. Just my opinion but I’d replace the both gears and the belt. One request, how about losing the background music….
Got the new gears and chain on this weekend . Thanks for letting me know about the music. Too easy to loose the music of people prefer no music. Easy to do. Thanks for the tips. J
Love the video, a tip for you in the future… the harmonic balance polar comes with an insert one tapered, and one flat, so the end of your polar shaft doesn’t wander while you’re using your impact. I kept waiting for you to install it when you were putting it on the crank.

Thank you for this video!
I'm glad that you liked it. Thank you for your support. J

I take it, this job would be a lot harder with the hood installed?

Why EXACTLY do you zero the harmonic balancer before pulling it? That part is keyed to the crank! I
