ok the the hub that is pressed onto the crankshaft on of the 3 ears broke off it is on there so hard any ideas.

p.s some one on this bored said it would brake ... you were wrong

 

Do you want to start over? That makes no sense. 2:05 a. m.-maybe your mind was not clear.

Give details on exactly what you did.

 

I think maybe he meant to say "someone on this board said it would not break ... you were wrong" ?

 

Yes ill start over
While attempting to remove My harmonic balancer hub one of the threre ears broke off and yes i did remove the bolt

 

yes thats right injuneer

 

you know you needed to use a socket in the middle of the hub. The socket is used so that the puller press on the crank, not the hub. The hub has a lip in the middle around the front of the crank. So, when you used the puller you were just pressing against the hub.

 

I have a brand new hub that I never used. I bought a new balancer that had the hub with it and it was keyed so I have no use for it. It is for 95 and older cars.$10 plus shipping and you can have it. If you are interested just PM me and I'll give you my phone number.

 

Yea I would be willing to bet thats what you did too. It took me a while to get that thing off when I did my cam swap. The best thing to do is use a 1/4" drive extension and push off that with the puller.

OK I got it off and i am ever so proud of myself (and my friend) we sawzalled the hub off before the snout of the crank so the timming cover would clear. Then we removed the timming cover and used a 3 jaw puller to pull the crank sprocket and what remained of the hub off.
