How To: RRM crankshaft pulley install
Tools needed:
5/8 box-end wrench
impact gun (need a force above 155 lb/ft)
22 mm socket for the crankshaft bolt
screwdrivers - both kinds
oil
jack stand
jack
a friend (I found it to be a lot easier with a friend with ya)
Step 1: Take off the wheel
Step 2: With a flat head screwdriver, pry out the black clips holding the plastic guard on. This will expose the crankshaft.
Step 3: Right above the crankshaft there is a tensioner pulley, use the box 5/8 wrench and turn it clockwise, it has some spring force on it so when turned clockwise, it will loosen the pully so you can take off the stock crank. Remove pulley using 22mm socket and either brute strength or a impact wrench.
Step4: Swap the pulleys, dab some oil on the screw and screw it back in.
Step 5: Make sure all pullies are on correctly and are sitting in its correct seat; just to make sure I had everything right, I used a phillips head to take off the plastic bottle where the coolant goes in to get a better look and fit my hands in there.
Step 6: Start the car make sure everything is working right. Put the skirt back on, then wheel, using a star pattern to screw on the wheel, so its even.
Step 7: Lower the car, rip it up on the road.
