LRNZ Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 I have a difflock locking bar, whilst it may not be the cheapest, I've used it to change many belts and I think its worth the money. Makes the job a breeze Get yourself the correct tool, or alternatively the whole kit, and you will be changing a timing belt in no time. cheers P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmgemini Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Ric You have a lot more faith in a flywheel lock pin than I have.....I bent mine and I didn't try anything like using it to hold the engine.A ring spanner and a hammer does me.

danebrewer Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I made one- just a couple of pieces of flat bar filed out to go round the curvature of the crank shaft, welded to a piece of strong tube, which I bolted to the TV damper and braced against the chassis rail, you can then unbolt it and fit thecrank pulley over the crank nut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
