if the pulley & balancer are 1 piece (I dont think it is in your case) you can use the 1 tool I showed you. if not, the pulley should un-bolt from the balancer, then use the other type of tool to remove it.

I did the timing chain and it was a one peice balancer. Wasnt as hard as i thought it was going to be. I had problems remembering where the bolts when i was putting it back together lol i eventually got it though. I set my timing 4 degrees ahead. Just for a little more power.

I herd that doing this makes your truck start alot slower as in it might take 2 or 3 cranks... or one long crank.. is this true? Also how does it run now like steve said..

steve05ram360 It was simlar to the one you pointed out. It had bolts that threaded into the damper. Ive noticed i have more power on the low end and less on the high. It starts just fine.
