VS Ute 3.8 V6
Finally got back to check the ute out.
Checked the balancer- there's a fair bit of play in it. New balancer on it's way.

I've got to get a puller and I've been checking the forum- consensus seems to be use a bolt style puller not a jaw one. I had a look at supercheap and the first review says
"No good for the ecotec 3.8"

What size bolts would I need to use it in the balancer? A couple threads say 1/4" UNC but want to make sure

Just use a 3 jaw puller, your not using it again.
