My first tool attempt was a major disaster, so here is round 2.
(To watch me struggle with my first version of this tool, check out the beginning of this video: • Business-Related Quest... )
No, I've never owned this tool.
When I worked at the Toyota dealership, the actual factory tool (not the Schlay version, which can be found here:www.autotoolwo... ) was part of a set of special Toyota tools that we could check out when needed. It was nice. Now that I am on my own, and $$$ is tight, I need to start buying... or making tools.
🔧
Here, I made a tool with the help of my dear friend, and very talented machinist, Danny Soliz of Hill Country Performance. Thanks, Danny!!
I also give a little foreshadow for my Timing belt video, which I finished filming back in March, but I haven't had time to edit completely yet, because it is really long and my computer and program crashes excessively for anything over 10 minutes. Yay!
I have unintentionally tricked many of you into thinking that I am a full-time RU-vidr who's only job is to provide you with these random automotive tutorials, BUT NOPE!! This is just something I do for fun in my free time, so the videos come as they will on my own time.

@hoonyfan2924 5 лет назад

So, I did something similar. As a welder who didn’t want to go buy a tool I’d use maybe a handful of times, I welded some bolts on a hook shaped piece I had laying around and a shaft. It worked great.

@FayeHadley 5 лет назад

NIIICE!!!! I wanted to make a 3rd tool - the welded version, but I am a pretty bad welder.... I mean, it may work, but it doesn't look pretty :)

I like how you think outside the box to do your shop repair. For me as a certified RV technician I get jobs that require thinking outside the box for ideas to do some repairs. For I got some hand made tools to do special jobs over the years both in RV service and my own auto service work at home. Keep up the great service work!!

After 30 yrs of wrenching, my toolbox has a whole lot of shop-made tools,that did the job at a much lower cost

@aaronshall9258 5 лет назад

My father owned a shop, and I started working there at a really young age. I took in as much information as I could about his tools and what there were used for:) really odd stuff:) When he passed away a little over 20 years ago I inherited his wonderful collection of tools. I still have a few things I have no clue what there for or why they were made!:)

@talltom1129 5 лет назад

I had old men showing me how to fix forklifts built before they were born. The factory didn't supply special tools, so we had to make them. Now I'm teaching myself how to fix old Kawasaki motorcycles, and those factory tools are also nonexistent! So,I make what I need!

@heavymechanic2 4 года назад

Anyone who has done a variety of repair work has learned how to modify wrenches and build gadgets to get the work done. I remember building a hub wrench for a farm tractor on something that resembled a monster truck, it was like 4-5/8 hex about 5-inches deep. These young people are taught to buy everything to support the marketplace, one of the secrets of public education funded by the government.

@MondayKeith 3 года назад

I installed Underdrive Pulleys on my '96 Mustang GT; 4.6L. I used the old fan belt. I cut it in half; wrapped it around the pulley - counter to the force I was/am/is/will be applied. I held it in place with small pieces and strips of Gorilla Tape. I did not want to mess about with the belt moving about; slipping and/or falling off. On the Crank Pulley, I made 150 ft/lbs, and on my Water Pump Pulley, I made 20 foot pounds... I had absolutely no issues with the taped belt (old cut one). I do not think one needs to go to the store whatsoever... Pretty much every Car "Guy" (you too Faye) is doing their build(s) on a tight budget. This one costs at most a roll of Gorilla Tape. It's easy, smart, and the cheapest tool I've had to buy to date with my build. Cheers Faye. Like the video...

@mikesauve9381 5 лет назад

The easiest way to get those crank bolts out was to make sure of the direction of rotation then put a socket on a breaker bar then turn the crank in the same direction till the bar touches the frame. Then you go inside and crank the engine for a second. The starter will break it loose every time. We did it all the time at the dealer

@blacksheep6941 Год назад

Won't you still need a crank pulley holding tool to tighten the pulley for the reinstall?

@woohunter1 5 лет назад

I remember doing a timing belt on an older Honda Civic, didn't have a chain strap wrench, so I jacked car up, put a jack stand with a thick piece of rubber in between the stand cradle and crank pulley lowered most of the weight of the front of the car on stand, them proceeded to take the big bolt out. Sometimes you have to improvise to save some money.

@mitomr.twiceasnice4358 5 лет назад

@kyleb3293 5 лет назад

To remove crank dampers I just get a long breaker bar and rest it against the ground, then I bump the starter. So far it's worked every time. For reinstall, I'll use an impact but if there's no room for one than it's the flywheel holding tool or whatever means I can come up with - like this perhaps.

@jasonharrison25 5 лет назад

I made one of those with two flat bars that where maybe 1" wide or so. Joined two ends together with a bolt to make a V shape. Then on the other side I put the bolts in for holding the pully. This design allowed it to fit different sized pullies by spreading them apart and didn't require any large holes drilled

@JT-ov2yr 5 лет назад

Funny, I did the same thing back in the early 1980s, used a 1/8" flat steel scrap I had lying around, and still have it today, except it now has multiple holding bolt holes drilled around the center crankshaft bolt access hole for different manufactures harmonic balancers that I have come across, then later I have had to drill out both ends to accommodate even more varieties harmonic balancers that I have come across over the years. I have made dozens of specialty tools over the years as you will too over time, nice addition to your collection. Great job by the way. (¼" was overkill IMO) Also, that looks roughly like a 1977 4 door VW Rabbit that you are driving there, is it? Great car, I had two of them over the years, still have one and retired the other at +550,000 miles on it, the floorboards 100% rusted out on it, when I would drive through a puddle, it flood the inside of the car, it was that bad.

You can sharpen your bits between each cut on a bench grinder. Took me a few times to get it down, but man, what a diff! Fresh cut with some drilling lube and they just keep drilling! The bits get shorter with time, for obvious reasons but they keep making holes! Nice tool you made! I have a ton of custom tools I've made over the years. Little ingenuity goes a long way!

@JohnSmith-ry8qj 5 лет назад

Thanks Everytime I have to take the crankshaft pulley bolt out I need a impact and the only one I have is air powered so it becomes a big ordeal to have to bring a compressor, my father has made tools in the past to do jobs of tools he either could not get or couldn't afford to spend money on. I think you make great videos and I still use some of his makeshift tools I don't have a rechargable impact that one tool you made would save me from packing a 100 pound compressor, gun, hose and extension cord but I suppose it's only going to fit similar pulley's and you would have to make different ones for different engines.

@terrystroble8657 5 лет назад

I'm guessing the hole she was worried about drilling was the large hole for the socket. If Fayes idea was to use a hole saw then I could see the HD staff saying it might be tough with a hole saw. Especially if she only has a hand drill. Doable taking your time and going slow with some cutting oil but much easier with a drill press on something .250 thick.

@brakedd 5 лет назад

making custom tools is half the fun of the job! bonus points if you can repurpose old parts - my favorite oil filter wrench when nothing else will do is made of a 1/2" extension with a small block Ford timing chain welded to it. It's called the mangler. custom tools FTW!

@gordonschlag 3 года назад

Hi Faye I am a little late to the game just started to binge watch your channel and had to comment on your drill bit issue. For the larger hole I would use a Hawg bit I believe they are made by Milwaukee for the smaller holes It should not take 3 bits or I should say the it should not take 3 of the same size bits. I don't know what size bolts they are so I can't tell you what sizes you would need but 1 or 2 smaller bits should be used to start a pilot hole and work up in size. If used properly you should be able to drill 10 to 20 holes with those same 3 bits even though it is a 1/4 inch. P.S. When I say used properly it is not to say you or anyone else in particular does not know how to drill a hole just that most people don't know what to look for while drilling. If done right you should have the curly fry looking metal coming off the piece of steel and this is only possible when you have the right amount of pressure applied and the right speed used.

@SCFactory 5 лет назад

I was able to Remove the crank pulley with an impact gun, Toyota recommends a NEW crank bolt when you put the pulley back on, since the threads stretch its not torqued incredible, if you live in a colder climate or its rusted on then yeah a tool will probably be better

@myshots101 5 лет назад

If you don't have a machine shop just take the measurements, drill holes and use a Dremel. It takes a bit longer but that's what I did to make one for my Miata when I did the timing belt. I had no other tools. All you need is a good bit. I call B's to whoever told you that you couldn't drill through that. Maybe one of these days I'll upload the short video of me doing that.
