What is it?

We saw this tool in a thrift shop today, no idea what it is. It's about 2 inch hex on the outside, 1/2 square hole for a drive, and about 1 1/2 hole through the center. It had some writing on it, but impossible to read.

I bought one just like it to hold the crankshaft on a 3.5 Honda V6. Used with an impact to get the bottom bolt loose on the crank pulley. Works good.

Honda/Acura Crankshaft Damper Holding Tool, Its just part of it the handle is missing. Its used to hold the front balancer while taking the balancer retaining bolt off. They are famous for being tighter than dicks hat band. That bolt will give a 3/4" impact wrench a go for the money. They came out with a extra thick wall 19MM socket that works quite well.

Believe it are not this socket works wonders on a 1/2" impact.

I have an Ingersoll Rand Power Drive socket
for those Honda balancer bolts. These are
the ones with the inertia ring. I bought
it when I still used air impacts and it got
the job done. My Milwaukee M18 Fuel 1/2
will knock those balancer bolts out with a
regular socket if I needed to, but I still
use the Power Drive to be easier on the
impact.

Ingersoll Rand Power Drive socket sets musta slipped by me I never seen them. I searched no 15MM are 18MM did you get a set are just the 19MM.

They sell them in several standard and
metric sizes, I just have the 19mm.
