Had a little time to waste. Harmonic balancer/damper bolt quick restoration. Bolt from an LS2. @vevor.official ultrasonic cleaner and @evapo_rust
I did a light scrub and then coated the bolt which is not shown in the video and yes, it is a TTY bolt which I DID NOT re-use nor do I suggest re-use.

Some before and after of the oe balancer vs @theoriginalfluidampr . What a visual difference and upgrade over oe. Hoping to be able to speed up the progress and get in the Trailblazer SS sooner than later!

Installing @theoriginalfluidampr p/n 760111 on the Trailblazer SS LS2 utilizing an @_arestool p/n 15088 and secured with @arpbolts p/n 234-2503.
Its exciting making progress on this build. Keep following for more!

Timing cover installation on Ls2 for Trailblazer SS using @arpbolts on a @speedengineering cover. Identical install for all Gm gen 3/4 V8s. Not shown was aligning the cover, phone didnt record when snugging down cover bolts with alignment tools.

Getting ready to install @theoriginalfluidampr with @arpbolts . Quality of these parts are far greater than oe and look amazing too! This frame replacement turned restoration has really snowballed at this point and I couldn't be happier! The Trailblazer SS getting some extra love now. Install coming soon!

Timing cover removal on LS2. Same procedure for GM gen 3/4 V8. Coming soon new timing cover and harmonic balancer install for this restoration and upgrades project.
With the cover fully exposed, remove (10) 10mm bolts, (8) on the cover face, (2) through oil pan into the bottom of the cover. Then gently pry the cover off. Remove any excess sealant in the bottom covers and inspect oil pan gasket for any damage If you are NOT planning to remove the oil pan.

Ls2 Harmonic Balancer removal. Same procedure for all Gm gen 3/4 v8s. Utilizing the @_arestool 15085 made the task super easy and problem free. Worked far better than a typical 3 jaw puller.
