Made from alloy steel with corrosion-resistant finish and included hardware, the set is engineered to grip, extract and press harmonic balancers with reduced risk to the crank snout. It covers a broad range of GM LS-series and compatible Chrysler engines, simplifies a common service task, and stores neatly thanks to the installer’s hangable cap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this puller remove a harmonic balancer without tapped holes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3-jaw puller uses a clip-in engagement that secures around the balancer nose so you can apply even extraction force without relying on threaded crankshaft holes. Because it grips the outer diameter, you avoid radiator removal and the need to access rear-mounted fasteners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-jaw design for a firm, centered grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClip-in setup eliminates the need for crank tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAllows removal while keeping surrounding components in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the installer safe for the crankshaft during fitting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe installer includes a thrust-bearing assembly so the balancer can be threaded evenly onto the crank without excessive axial force.
