harmonic balancer

1996 Land Cruiser - 4 hours of trying to put the harmonic balancer back on the cam and the little half circle lock key keeps popping out of groove in cam shaft. What is the secret?? I have to be on the 50th attempt - I am soooooo frustrated. I have the key slot positioned on the very top. I...

While figuring out a knocking sound this is what i found: The harmonic balancer has a little wobble and a particular sound, i dont' have a lot of knowledge and this one escapes my hands. Your thoughts will be appreciated greatly.

Talked with the machine shop that's rebuilding the F.5. He asked about installing the balancer. On my searching here all I could find was everyone uses a big hammer to install. He will not beat it on. Where can I look for a balancer install tool?

Due to an ebay bidding error I ended up with two 46mm sockets. This is the size for the harmonic balancer/crank nut on the F/2F/?F etc. $20 takes it, that's less than what I paid. It's new old stock in the box. Nice made in USA tool. 3/4" drive.

Here is a low cost 300 ft-lb DIY shop-built torque wrench - to handle re-installation of that big 30mm 304 ft-lb harmonic balancer - crankshaft bolt. This is needed when you replace the front main seal and / or the oil pump cover plate o-ring, which are common oil leaks at the front of the...

I am looking to replace my harmonic balancer. I usually go with Toyota parts but am having trouble finding an OEM. I was wondering if any one could point me to a new OEM or had any exp with any of the many after market brands? thanks.
