how did you get that crank bolt out at 16:02
This is the best guide available at the moment. Well worth turning the engine over by hand before putting it all back together though! Love seeing these videos to check what I'm in for, and spot any tools I might need or hangups before I get there. I got mine in a week.
Roughly how long does this take? And is the gates kit still going strong?
Very very good video…..thanks a lot.
I want snap on tools too…
The video was very helpful and made the job much easier. Thanks for your help.
Awesome job on the video by far the best style no words needed just watch and learn and JRTFV, Just Read The Friendly Video.

I should have did this when I placed a new Rad in my 98 Leg. 🙁
Nice video, I really liked the way you removed the crank pulley bolt. I have two questions, how did you tighten the crank pulley bolt? and do you think I can do this job without removing the radiator? Once again, thank you so much for sharing.
