  • Go to one of the parts places you buy your parts from, some loan tools out for free.
  • rent one
  • buy a good one
  • buy a cheapie from Harbor freight


  • Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

    Yes, I know all this. I am using my own real damper puller with the crank bolt head as a pushing surface, just as was mentioned. Damper won't budge. Some fear that the wrench will break (or the puller!) before the puller finally yanks it off. That's why I was asking about possible stuff to soak it with and let it sit a while. I've tried a spray penetrating fluid that so far hasn't helped.

    Can you get at the puller main bolt to give a good hard rap with a BFH to jar it while it has alot of tension on the damper.
