what's the socket size for the crakshaft pulley bolt? the one that is a huge pain to get loose. last time i did the timing belt i thought i wasn't going to be able to get it off and so now i want to get a weighted socket to see if that helps me next time.

I believe 22mm.

7/8” works as well (22.225mm).

@OTRAMM has a handy dandy tool for this. Might be something you can rent. Otherwise, a big @ss impact will take it off no problem. Just did mine this weekend. There's no great way to torque it without this tool imo. Holding the cams instead is a little iffy, not great.

looks like it should work, I'll probably buy one.

i've got a tool like your amazon link and it works great - it was just the required torque that was killing me
