I have taken off the pulley that the belt usually is attached. Under that pulley is a metal ring with 6 holes around it (that the pulley bolts into) and inside that ring is a larger allen head bolt. That is the bolt that I cannot remove. If i spin it the impeller spins on the other side, if i hold the ring with a plier (like you did with the counter spin tool) the bolt is stuck and no amount of torque takes it off (tried impact gun).

Should i hit the unit with a mallet to try to seperate the unit a bit? or do I have to loosen that bolt first regardless




i was actually stuck on this part last week. Mine came with a KW 85mm Pulley. 6 small hex holding the Pulley to the Hub Adapter. the Hub adapter is Bolted down to the SC with 1 large Hex Bolt. That Bolt is a Pain in the ass checks.


I first tried making a Pulley Tool out of Aluminum , i thought it would be Strong enough. I tried my dewelt cordless brushless battery powdered Impact gun and Nothing. It wasnt strong enough..


so i charged up my air compressor and used a air gun at 120 Psi.. It destroyed the aluminum Pulley tool..


what i did was use a Old Oem Honda Tow Hook made out of Steel. I redrilled Holes for the Puley Tool. Then their was a Hole big enough to fit a 3/8 drive Breaker Bar. I used the air tool and Bam.. the Hex Bolt came Loose..
