Title: Not compatible with many Ford engines
Product review: This is billed as a universal puller/installer, and if you go to OTC's website, you see it specifically listed as compatible with Ford's 4.0L V6 OHV engine. However, it actually isn't compatible when it comes to reinstalling the harmonic balancer. The problem is that Ford's 4.0L engine requires a very long M12 x 90 mm threaded bit in order to reach the crankshaft threads for reinstallation. OTC went cheapo and the M12 bit they provide is nowhere near long enough to catch any of the threads. I ended up just using the old balancer bolt to get the balancer on, and then I torqued in the new bolt. Very disappointing...the item is well made, but heck...there are how many million vehicles on the road that use Ford's 4.0L V-6, and OTC couldn't be bothered to give you a bit that was just 1 inch longer?
