Hi guys, this is my first post here. I was wondering if there is a special harmonic balancer puller and installer for a 4.2. It's a rather deep balancer and I had to do a crank seal on one the other day. My generic puller barely fit and I wound up braking a bolt off so I used a good ole hammer and prybar to get it off, then (because it's so deep) my generic installer wouldn't work, I wound up using a block of wood and a bottle jack to install. Just wondering what y'all use.

Thank you!

 

I am planning to remove the balancer to replace the front seal on my 03 F150 4.2L.
I'm hearing horror stories here. I gather, you need to get a longer bolt to replace the shorter one then walk the balancer out with a jaw puller.
what exact size bolt is being removed then wj
hat size bolt to replace it to remove the pulley?
What thread pitch, head size, and length is the original?
