Needed - 46mm Socket (1 Viewer)

[MTPCRUISER]

Friends,

Does anyone have a 46mm socket that they are willing to loan? I need to remove the crankshaft pulley nut on my 77 FJ40, and can't find a local source for the socket. (I'd also rather not buy another rarely-used tool.) I've checked with the UC members here in Charleston, but to no avail. Can anyone upstate help?

Keith I don't have one. Maybe someone will step up. I'll be in Charleston in 2 weeks. If someone steps up maybe I can deliver it.

Doesnt your crankshaft nut have those 2 hooked barbs on it so that you can use a bar instead of a socket?

 

[Trollhole]

I think that would tighten it.

I think those hooks are for hand cranking the engine like an
old T model.

They are.

yeah, that's right...so using the t-bar would tighten the nut, not loosen it

Thanks to 72Cruiser (Jonathan)! This is one of the great things about cruiser addicts, everyone is just so darned friendly.

Hopefully now I can get the timing cover off and find the source of this knock that's been driving me nuts.
