Ok, first- if you stick something other than the proper tool in your flywheel you're likely to break off some teeth. If you don't believe me, look at your timing chain cover. Second, I took my whole rear fascia off in like 20-30 minutes. It was cake and I'd never done it. -BUT- If you've already removed your muffler, there's a good chance all you have to do, is remove the steel plate that hooks to the lower lip of the fascia, unscrew it from there, and undo the row of bolts that holds it to the frame. That should give you all the room you need to get the impact wrench in there. --- In DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Travis Goodwin <tgoodwin@xxxx> wrote: > ...to get an impact socket on the crankshaft pulley. > > The wrench I have won't fit in there without taking the bumper off, which I > am dead set against at the moment.
