  1. Dont need a $200 tool anymore , go to bunnings get 3 × 8mm d shackles $1.44 and 3 x 8mm x50mm long galv bolts .with the y type old school harmonic balancer tool youve already got (40$ at supers) , Slip the shackle between the 3 spokes ( with the thread at the back )with the crank bolt out . Then with tools adjuster bolt in (use some flat sheet metal or ply to protect the air con radiator) adjust the adjuster bolt so the tool fits flat , put your 8mm bolts in ( a little fidgetty but quick enough , having all shackles facing the same way do up all bolts loosely then when sure the main adjuster is centred tighten att 3 bolts , Then with a big spanner turn turn turn , sure the shackles may take up the slack for a few minuted then it will get harder hit the balancer with some shock ( can help breck the tention bond) keep going till off .. easy as. Notes:: Just removed snorket fan plug and the 2 x 8mm bolts for the fans , keep close in the holes in the top cross bar (radiator support bar). No radiator removal no damaged nuckles , just asked bro to help with the main bolt , he used plumbers wrench to secure the balancer and an extention pipe on the 22mmx1/2 5 sided socket ) I recomend 5 sided to multi socket so as not to round it or your really stuffed,,,,.also 8mmx40mm bolts were too short stripped thread and bent shackle so did 2nd trip to bunnings so 8mmx50mm gets thread all the way into the shackle,,, dont need the $2:48 hardened one .looked too short anyway the galv ones worked fine For me this solves the expensive tool problem as kennards ect dont have them to hire, and lube mobile wont even quote on what they rule , half a job, ( no removing it is the job , its the whole job) I even spoke to the sydney call centre supervisor. They didnt want even $80 for a 5 minute job ..All other solutions involved buying the $200 to $300 tool this is max $50 ,,,, thanks for this forum for hints ive used in the past .happy 98ron to you all   I've been trying to post these pics for my post ,     to show that I did do it and then say that the new one from repco (rac member discount came to $185 plus $12 for steel epoxy putty has 3 thredded holes )TA,
  2. liquidated damages ,is really the $2 per hour they might have lost if someone was in that bay that may have paid for a ticket .let alone that all other bays may have been empty . so maybe clamping a wheel maybe a tresspass criminal charge against wilson...that you could also press in a damages claim against them ....an unlocked carpark for road code 1999 /2000 regs , purposes is really a road . can get a speeding fine effectively , but also its not a "declared road "under main roads laws for a legal speed limit .so GREY, (2 signs draws a line ,2 lines make a speed zone ), 3 signs does not a speed zone make,,,like the single 50 sign under parliament house perth . so its 80 to the lights fellers.then hay is 50 ,,,,,,..
  3. BUT what I did was once the thermo manifold was removed cut the short hoses then you have the space for multi grips for the factory clamps . that you can lock open later with the grips and slide back up the hose , so no stupid hose clamp fails later (use those hard core factory one piece whenever you can) .I matched up the hose length from the front pipe with new hose from repco oconnor , kept the second piece long until I had fitted up with the factory clamp to the block pipe , and after screw clamping the hose from the front pipe to the front cooler outlet . and as the rear cooler outlet is at a stupid angle ,the blocks, pipe hose kinda did a 360 around the first so it then had a natural direction into the rear cooler pipe kinda like of the figure in an 8 , ,it kinda goes under first then over and then feels more natural ., .so after 1/2 of a tank going from bibralake to and around maddington to gumtree sellers and wreckers , back to hydraulic places quoting on brass reducers ,elbows,and tbolt clamps ,, I got 1.2 m of heater hose and used the same clamps , so it cost me $9 plus fuel , cheaper that $250 . , so I bought some beer and celebrated my birthday of course . , (estimated ""savings""is always a good excuse for a new tool or a celebration) ,,hehe , while was umder there a couple of cans of degreso from pupers and all good . goes harder yeeehaaarrr... I RECKON IVE NOW GOT MORE TORQUE AND DIRECTIONAL POWER equal to osbourne parks united 107 octane E85 , but on any 98 at $130 on a monday from my jerrys from a monday shop..........#waynefreo ... nice to read all your works fellers ,and felleretts
