Q:
How do you remove the Crankshaft Damper? Posted by Customer
A:
To remove the 4.5L engine, start by disconnecting the negative battery cable and removing the serpentine belt. Then, raise and support the vehicle securely, and remove the right front wheel and tire. Take off the right front air deflector and support the body of the car and the right side of the engine cradle. Lower the right side of the cradle and remove the harmonic balancer bolt and washer. Use a puller to remove the balancer. To install the engine, lubricate the hub and seal with EP lubricant and position the balancer on the crankshaft, aligning the key slot in the hub with the key on the crankshaft. Use an installer tool to bottom the hub out on the crankshaft and then install the harmonic balancer bolt and washer. Lighten it to 60 ft. lbs. Raise the right side of the cradle and position the ball joint to the steering knuckle while raising. Support the body and the right side of the engine cradle, and install the right side engine cradle body bolts. Install the right front air deflector, the right front wheel and tire, and lower the vehicle. Finally, connect the negative battery cable. For the 4.9L engine, follow similar steps, but tighten the harmonic balancer bolt to 70 ft. lbs. For the 4.6L engine, disconnect the negative battery cable and release tension from the accessory drive belt. Raise and support the vehicle, remove the right front wheel, and remove the splash shields and brace. Support the engine cradle and remove the bolts from the right side. Disconnect the RSS sensor and use a flywheel holder tool to remove the balancer bolt. Lower the engine cradle and install a pilot tool into the crankshaft. Use a puller tool to remove the harmonic balancer. To install, position the balancer to the crankshaft and use a tool to install it. Clean the balancer bolt threads and tighten it to 105 ft. lbs. plus 120 degrees. Raise the engine cradle and install the bolts, then reconnect the suspension position sensors. Remove the flywheel holder tool and install the oil pan-to-transmission brace. Install the wheelhouse splash shields and the right front wheel. Lower the vehicle and install the accessory drive belt. Finally, connect the negative battery cable.
