yes. for free too.

use a flat piece of bar (steel or aluminium) and lock the flywheel... like so

or this for auto (excuse the circle. not relevant to this but already had them uploaded)

I would not recommend doing locking the ring gear as you run the risk of damaging it

Whose locking the ring gear? The flywheel is bolted to the block. Not touching the ring gear

My appologies I didn't see the picture properly. Was on my phone when I posted that

**markismaximus** · 30-03-2012 07:47 AM

neither. its like this

I'm also not using a normal breaker bar. I'm using a special hammer impact breaker. Basically a breaker bar that is designed to be hit with a hammer. But from the top, so force is directed downwards. Tried to find a pic on google but not having much success

**mocchi** · 30-03-2012 07:54 AM

oh ok, i think thats the key in your success mang
im just using socket + breaker bar + extension.

i assumed you were using normal breaker bar + socket.
