I needed to install a crankshaft sleeve on my 351W but I didn't want to spend a bunch of money on the install tool, so I  looked on youtube and people were installing them with a block of wood and a hammer.  I didn't really like this idea because I wanted it to be installed as evenly as possible AND its hard to get it started.  So my solution was to make my own tool.

I used a fly wheel as a pattern ad drilled 6 holes in a piece of steel


I was then able to use bolts to press the sleeve on to the crank


In this shot you can see the groove in the crank, its not as bad as it looks but bad enough that it was no wonder that it was leaking


I had to use a block of wood and a hammer do drive it on the last 3/16" but it went on so well up to that point that the last little bit was really easy.  Once installed the crank was better than new.


As an aside I ordered the more expensive Fel-Pro PTFE rear main seal but when I opened the box there was a little piece of paper in it that said "Fel-Pro does not recommend the use of a repair sleeve with this seal." so I will be sending it back to Summit and was able to get the old school rubber Fel-Pro seal from a local parts house.
