[Supras] Crankshaft Pulley Bolt

[FauxZ]

just be sure you don't jack up the pulley that way..

personally I've wedged a block of wood between the crank and the block, but 
i was afraid i might crack the block so I drilled two holes in a long piece 
of 1/4 x 3" steel bar, bolted that where the flywheel used to go, and then 
let it smack up against the stand..  That's the best way, assuming you don't 
have the flywheel on anymore of course..   The best, best, way is to hold 
the flywheel with a flywheel tool before you put it on the stand..

The funniest part is the picture in the tsrm.

Obivously Toyota techs have some form of superhuman strength as they show 
you can easily remove the bolt with a 1 foot breaker bar in one hand and an 
sst in the other.
