Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Sunluway Toyota/Lexus Crankshaft Damper Pulley Holding Tool with Crank Bolts: Ensuring Harmonic Balance and Easy Repairs by Len Chandler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Surprised at the strength

Used to remove the crankshaft pulley bolt on a 2003 Highlander V6. There are slits on the surface that comes in contact with the pulley, but they don't line up exactly. Missing by a mm or 2. So when I loaded it actually just touched the raised part, I thought the slots would fold over. However, this was a moot point as the instrument was very well secured. The bolt got stuck, so I landed on the ground with my feet on the pry bar and pulled with my other hand to remove the bolt. I could feel a kink in one of the crowbars, but when I looked at the tool afterwards, I didn't notice any slipping or kinking in the bolts at all. Very impressed with the reliability of this tool. The only recommendation is to build one that fits the 3/4" breaker bar and use flange bolts instead of washers.

Pros
  • Beautiful
Cons
  • Good but not great
