so I'm underneath a Jeep Grand Cherokee
it's a 95 the flywheel isn't moving very
smoothly and so I've kind of rigged up a
contraption to help I will rotate
hopefully this will help help someone
else out in the future with the flywheel
you have to get the torque converter
bolts in so I have one but as you can
see the other bolt is way too far up in
there is the one at the very top of the
screen so what I've done is I've taken a
one of these tie-downs and I wrapped
around this front arm right here coming
down and then grabbing up where it
connects with the tire here you can see
the where it clicks in and then I have a
bolt sticking out of one of the holes in
there
but as you can see as I pull on this it
rotates the flywheel obviously you don't
want to do this you know it's not your
first method of attack just because it
might cause damage in the future but it
does rotate the flywheel even as you
need to rotate it you can pull out you
can loosen up the tie-down remove the
bolt and keep on rotating so that bolt
up there I need to put in it's just
about in place so thanks to that little
handy contraption I can now get this
bolt in so yeah we're good
another way of writing the flex plate is
taking a wrench that's smaller in
diameter than the thickness of your flex
plate and putting it up in there
so it attaches on one of the grooves and
the flex plate itself and then if you
push up it's still pretty difficult but
if you push up you can rotate the flex
plate as you can see right there
names down rotate up
so that's one way to do
