Crank Bolt Removal on Toyota Sienna. No special tools!

- Toyota Crankshaft Bolt Removal, 4 different methods tried, with the last one being successful. I did not want to use the starter bump method, because even though you can loosen the bolt, you still have no way to tighten it again to the correct torque!
(I didn't have a strong impact or an air-driven impact, but this video is aimed at people with somewhat basic tools)

I admire your ingenuity! I just replaced a timing cover seal on my 05 Camry. I have a corded harbor freight impact wrench I must have bought for under $40 and their impact sockets, for changing my snow tires. Rattled the bolt right out. Then I have a set of torque sticks I bought from them. I used the 100ft-lbs one to run it back on and called it a day. Saves me time having to charge my compressor for my pneumatic wrench. I’m a former Toyota mechanic by trade so I have Snap-on, Matco, Craftsman tools and I use the cheap tools even more sometimes 😂
My point being if you’re a DIY’r, harbor freight can be a fantastic resource. It’ll save you SO headache too. 😉
Thanks for the tips! :)

Hi Jedi... I tried a Harbor Freight electric impact and a HF air impact. Neither worked. Then I bought HF's "Earthquake" air impact (around 600 ft/lbs)... It zipped the bolt off like it was finger tight!
@@robertbigler7743 great! Just don’t use it to put it back on. Tighten gently and to the exact torque spec🙃
Thank you for the demonstration! I really like how you propped up the end of the breaker bar on a jack!
Hi Dave, it helps to keep your socket and extension level with the bolt. And it is so easy to get to the right height!
Great video, thanks for sharing. It's nice to see other peoples trial and errors as well lol. And you have a wonderful voice!
Thanks Sarah. Sometimes it is just a matter of perseverance! :)
Muy buen video felicidades por tu excelente aporte saludos! Desde México 🇲🇽
Thanks Juan!
In America, we call that a cheater bar, technical term would be a Torque Multiplier!! Have to do what needs done sometimes..
Haha Git er done!
I'm in the same boat. 20p4 Toyota sienna timing belt replacement.
Good luck! I have two videos on that. One features the timing belt & water pump. The other features the cam seals. :)
Well done mate
No worries mate. :)
Use a braker bar and crank up the starter easy peasy.
Sure, but how do you torque it at the end?
Good
Great video thanks
Thanks for the support Danny! :)
So the chain has more grip on the pulley than the belt....
Yes, much more. When I did the cam sprockets I decided to put a piece of old belt between the chain and the metal. It worked perfectly!
Did you use the vise grips when you reinstalled it?
What direction to take off? Counter clockwise?
Yes!
How long was your cheater bar?!?
I used a 24 inch breaker bar, with a wider 36 inch pipe slipped over it. :)
Did you have to replace the harmonic balancer??
No, still using the same one. :)
They make a tool to remove it
Yes, and it is easier if you have the tool!
You damaged the ribs of the pulley with that chain.
The ribs are pretty sturdy. I have done this on two vehicles. No marks on one and two small marks to clean up on the other. I protected the crank pulleys with pieces of old drive belts. It worked perfectly!
That's a special tool. Description listed "no special tool"
Not considered special in any shop. :)
Just buy a battery 1/2 impact , or borrow. Everybody got one.
You may be lucky, but many 1/2 inch impacts are not able to loosen that crank bolt. Crank bolts and axle nuts can be vey stubborn!
@@Pen_Pusher Get a good powerful gun. Maybe need an air one. I’ve cranked the starter before on a 4cyl using a breaker bar. That works but seems a bit “scary” lol.
@@cndvd Yes, a good air gun will do the job. The problem with using a breaker bar to loosen it is that you still need something to help when you want to tighten it again!
@@Pen_Pusher Yes that’s right got to torque it. I’ve jammed a large screwdriver in there to loosen and tighten it, but need to be able to insert it in and lock in in there. The wheel bearing I’ve use a very long pipe over a breaker bar, always broke loose. My Ridgid impact so far worked, but the newer ones are even stronger for the crank bolt. Still surprised it worked.
you could've just cranked the motor with socket and cheater bar on it,Lol
True, but then how do you fasten it again? Start in reverse?
@@Pen_Pusher So did you use the vise grips when you re installed it?
@@roltyd22 Yes, that is the advantage of using this method. It works for both taking it off and tightening it again to the proper torque. :)
You haven't broken teeth of a flywheel yet by doing the above. Lucky man.
