Crank Pulley Holder Tool and HD Soft Shackle Recovery Points Now Available!

[CPACruiser]

The current unavailability of this tool is unfortunate, and seeing as I'm tackling some baseline projects in the next few weeks I need one...

Fortunately I run a CNC Laser.

I have spoken to Ryan @OTRAMM and with his current workload and cost of blanks he gave me his blessing to produce and supply these.

If anyone else is interested in one I can do a run of these to get better pricing. For now at the current level of interest I'm going to price these at $70 with included priority flat rate shipping via USPS tracking provided once shipped.

1/2" laser cut steel, standard will be 3/4" drive for breaker bar attachment (1/2" drive hole upon request) , Center hole is sized for 30mm socket to pass thru, two holes for bolting securely to crank pulley are 89mm apart at center.

PM or if interested, payment via PayPal.
PayPal: overlandcpa@gmail.com

Price is $70 USD shipped to US, international shipping available at international priority mail rates.

Powder coated black for an additional $10

If anyone else is interested in one I can do a run of these to get better pricing. If I can get enough interest I could likely price these at around $60 + flat rate shipping via USPS to the lower 48.

PM for interest.

Just an fyi, sending flat rate boxes via USPS is the same rate to Hawaii and I think Alaska for the same price as anywhere else in the mainland US.

Good to know Jen! I'll add you island folk and Alaskans to the party!

I'd make a 3/4 drive hole too

Yeah good point I can easily make that modification if requested.

I'm interested in the crank pulley tool. How would we arrange payment and shipping for the product?

Edit: I was a little skeptical ordering something from a stranger online but I can vouch for @CPACruiser and the product! Excited to use this in the coming months.

I’m in.

How many people do you need for a run?

 

[Kernal]

Are these going to be painted (?color), bare, or??

 

[CPACruiser]

If interested pm me to arrange payment via PayPal

Note whether you want 1/2, 3/4 drive or both.

Once I get 10 I'll do a run.

@Kernal The finish will be bare at this point, if interest continues I can look into powder coating for additional cost.

If you are going to make the 'drive' sizes an option then make the standard 3/4" and offer 1/2" as the option, but folks are going to learn in a hurry that you want to use a 3/4" drive breaker bar.

Has Ryan @OTRAMM stopped making these or have you got some agreement to use his design?

He has stopped making them due to the high cost of blanks for him (I asked via YouTube), I designed this myself and work in a machine shop so my cost is doable. I'm just trying to provide something useful to the 80 community since I'm able...there's really no other way to "design" this tool.

Sweet. It's good know that someone can pick up where Ryan left off. Good luck.

Thanks for editing your original post.

Can confirm you want a 3/4"

I just did this job, took a very solid hold on the pulley and a 3/4 breaker bar with 3 foot of pipe slipped over it to break it loose. Tightened it up the same way. 1/2" tools were not going to get the job done.

I built a tool for the job, one piece of flat stock welded to a piece of 1" tubing about 12" long, with enough offset for the socket. A second piece of flat stock welded to a 1" piece of square tubing that is 1" ID that can slide over the other tubing. Bolt the two ears to pulley I put a bar in the 12" piece and blocked against the frame.

The above tool is nice, I would have sprung for one, but the tool I built is adjustable, which will work on my Tundra later this spring when I do the timing belt. You have to remove the main pulley on the V8 for that project, but the hole spacing and socket are all smaller. I couldn't build a single plate with double purpose holes, not enough meat for the bigger socket needed on the 1FZ.

So I need to make some other vehicle designs as well
