First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Sheen,
The balancer should slide on easily so it can be pulled home by the mounting bolt. It's not meant to be a force fit like on Chebies. You could find 5/8-16 threaded rod with a matching nut to pull the balancer in, but I think you could have a problem with the precison of your crank. Check out the discussion on PZ. http://www.pontiaczone.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13676&highlight=balancer Larry --- On Tue, 9/23/08, S Sterchi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... The manual says install using a suitable instrument. Are they referring to a hammer? I wouldn't want to bang on it considering that would mean banging on the thrust bearing. I have it on but its not on deep enough to get any threads started to suck it down into place. I tried a couple of stores for a longer bolt but 5/8"-16 bolt is hard to come by. Any ideas?
