I'm trying to install my new HB but the center bolt that came with the install kit doesn't fit into the center opening of the HB. I googled like mad and haven't found similar problems, am I doing it wrong? And what do i do with my HB bolt. What happens if I reuse my old one and what do i need to torque it to?

Thanks.

Verify that you ordered the correct HB kit. Do you still have the old bolt to compare it to?

You can reuse it, but I don't recommend it. That bolt is a torque to yield. That means it'* stretched.

Sorry if I made myself unclear.i meant the bolt from the HB pulley remove and instal set.

Oh. I have a write up on removing the HB in tech info. I believe it says what size bolt is needed. It'* not included in the HB puller kit.

I'm sorry if I made myself unclear again.I'm trying to install the new HB.

line up the key and push it on then tighten the bolt just like in dans write up you must use a brand new bolt as stated they are torque to yeild and stretch tighten the bolt and torque to 111 ft lbs the rotate the bolt another 76 degrees this is the stretch just like dan said in his write up then put the splash guard back and the wheel start it up make sure your belt is tracking right and if so away you go

Ok cool so I don't need to press it on.thanks guys

No, the HB bolt will pull it in to place.

see there problem solved all the more reason to further explore and enjoy the forum stick around graab a cold one and pull up a seat
