OK, so all this talk recently of improper torque values for the crank pulley has gotten me all paranoid that it's not on tight enough. While I had my pulley off I had made a crank holder to use to put it back on. I torqued down to maybe 120-130 but as I approached that number the "handle" on my holder started to bend so it's 'prolly not a true number. I'm pretty sure it's on there... buuut maybe I wanna check it anyway. I went to retrieve my bent holder this morning to bring in with me to work and I couldn't find it. After asking the wife she confirmed it went out with last weekend's trash. Now why in the name of bananas would someone throw out a rusty bent piece of metal with an anemic spaghetti fork on the end of it???:-p

 

I know several of you have this afore mentioned holder so if one of you would be so kind as to measure the spacing for me with a caliper (yes skip, looking in your direction:grin: ), I would be most grateful! Please provide, outside-to-outside and the diameter of the posts.

 

As always, thanks much!

Sure thing Will, I'll get right on it

 

Please give me a minute or two it's 5 deg F,

Snow worries mate, only had to shovel a bit.

 

Hope this helps, it is a pulley from an EJ25

I could only take the cold so long and could

not locate the EJ22 model.

I will venture back in hopes of finding it

after me toe toes warm abit.

 

The drill bits were a nice fit (both were 0.45")

(stood nice and plumb) and let me get

the dia of the hole centers.

The depth of the pulley is to where the holes

bottom out.

I WILL find the other pulley.

(why would anyone keep a pulley with the center bore

bored 150 over?)

This is the real deal.

The pencil shown here is 0.285"

(your 5/16")

I'll keep looking.

Okay Will sorry for the delay.

Found the EJ22 pulley (1994 ed.)

You were correct, much different.

Here it is, hope this helps.

Please note the dimension for the hole

depth from the surface of the pulley.

That is a fine looking home made tool, I paid around 150.00 dollars for mine from Subaru and I have to use a 1/2 breaker bar with it. (Well Done)

 

 

Thanks, I am def. fortunate that I have the means at my disposal to whip stuff like that up when I want/need it. Saves more money for parts and camping trips:banana:

 

My pleasure Will,

glad it helped.

Thanks for saying thanks.

 

That is what makes this board go around!

 

Help it did indeed. If you ever have need of something cut in 2 dimensions just send me numbers and I'll burn it out for ya! Looks like I'll be sticking around awhile longer as the powers that be decided to up my pay after finding out I was gonna split.:banana: :banana: :banana: Sure makes me happy 'cause this is the most fun I've had making a paycheck since being the gear jockey on rock climbing trips in Yosemite back in my teens.

 

As for the pulley, turns out the re-torque wasn't needed, but I'm sure gonna sleep better tonight knowing for sure!

 

Thanks again

 

Will-
