Re: A Little Help from my friends today
Glad i could help,,I had, after strighten out the threads installed the pulley and then tried to spin it almost forgot my mechanics there,, but it comes back quickly. this is when we found it was seized . we had to remove the snap ring with a pair of wire cutter pliers and small screw driver, (we had none of the correct tools,) and then knock the bearing out , we didn't have even have a hammer. We used pliers and a socket to knock out the bearing,, when Randy"s daugther arrived with a hammer , installing the bearing with useing the old bearing to line up and hammer on ,,we got it in ,, now for the snap ring after a few tries, randy found a small, i mean small pair of needle nose pliers they worked. I tried the bolt first and already fixed the thds. Then we installed the pulley then the belt,, good thing we had my car there so we could see how the belt goes, got every thing back to normal, car runs, belt still on,, i told randy to retorque that bolt once he got home, all this was done in two hours. jim
