@thaik56 The seal is behind the pulley. So, no the seal will not be damaged by using the holding tool. The seal can be damaged if a acetylene torch is used to heat up the bolt to try to loosen. The torch may not even loosen the bolt either. I tried a long time ago, before I started selling tools, to use a torch to heat the bolt (I was going to replace the seal anyway). But heating it up did NOT help. This is one case where having the right specialty tool can make all the difference in the world!

@Darkmand8 the breaker bar is 14' long. The longer the better though!

That's it, because you put oil on the threads before it goes back in the hole. Bolt looks bone dry on every one I've done except the first one witch was getting it's second belt. Good call Den. And here I was thinking you had the strength of Superman. ;-) Also, do you have a link where folks can order that tool from you. I posted this vid for a nephew on my FB & would like to put a link so he knows where to get it. Thanks.

Never seen one brake loose that easy. I have to start with the cheater pipe at about 2 or 3 o'clock & it breaks loose at about 11 o'clock & sounds like you done tore something up. Other than that, very nice vid.

@boogernat If they have never been loosened before, you're right they're a booger!
