Rent this tool from Oreily to pull the crank pulley off. This is the same tool that Jeffstai use in his instruction video. I didn't have any trouble getting the crank bolt off. It came right off with around 50-60ft lbs of torque.



I also installed an oil drain valve. I didnt feel like rethreading the oil pan and put on an oversize plug. There is nothing I hate more than being underneath this fat bia@tch.I just slap on a Fumoto oil drain and JBweld it.

Found some old picture of my old SC400 before it was wrecked couple years ago. Damn I should have kept the interior and megaracing coilover. I never would have thought of owning another SC.

I miss this smooth driving machine.
