Instead of relying on bolt threads in the balancer, the ReluxGo unit uses a three-jaw clamp system and a short 22mm hex socket to seat behind the pulley and apply even pulling force. The result is faster, safer removal without needing to dismantle cooling components in most installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this puller remove balancers that lack threaded holes?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe puller uses a clamp-in, three-jaw design that grips the balancer's backside rather than screwing into it. When the 22mm short-head sleeve is driven with a 1\/2\" ratchet, the central driver pushes against the crank snout while the jaws draw the balancer outward, producing a uniform extraction force that minimizes slipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree-jaw clamp grips the balancer flange for secure engagement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e22mm hex sleeve fits 1\/2\" drive ratchets or breaker bars for controlled removal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClamp system avoids reliance on balancer-threaded holes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort sleeve profile helps in tight engine bays without radiator removal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich engines and vehicles are compatible with this tool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReluxGo lists compatibility across many GM LS-family and Chrysler-based engines, including popular GM displacements and several Dodge\/Jeep V6 and V8 units.
