[QUOTE="MustangChris, post: 728662, member: 10830"] So i went to install my Metco 6# pulley on my 04 cobra and i ran into a problem. Im thinking everyone's collective minds might be able to guide me... I have to remove the front supercharger pulley. It is held in by a 14mm alen wrench bolt. well, Metco included the tool to remove it. the instructions say "place the car in 6th gear, apply the e-brake handle, chaulk the rear tires, if possible, and have a fat guy sit on your brake pedal when you try and un-do this bolt." ... great... well my motor is out of the car, with no flywheel... so ive got 8 boltsback there and then the removal tool up front. those are my options... I put a spacer on a bolt on the back of the crank (so the bolt wouldnt bottom out) and put a box end wrench on it. I wedged it against one of the supports on the engine stand and i started slowly turning the front bolt. the crank bolt on the back just kept tightening. THe last thing i wanted was to pull out all the threads on the back, so i stopped at roughly .75 turns on the rear bolt. i back out the bolt and inspect the threads. everything was fine. back to square 1. soooo... i pull out my pecker... i mean, impact gun. slap the socket on there... but its not strong enough. front bolt didnt even budge. anyone have any suggestions? Engine is on stand. no oil pan, no top intake manifolds, valve covers are on, all accessories are on. thanks all, Chris :occasion14: [/QUOTE]
