Re: How to remove crank bolt

[Steve Chervinsky <63hemipolara@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have wedged a piece of wood between the damper and the k-frame and
that has given it enough "drag" to get the bolt loose. Use a 24"
breaker bar and it goes easy. There is a tool that you could possibly
rent from a rent all place that grabs the ring gear (meant to turn the
ring gear) made like a flattened "C".

Good luck.
