I just installed a flywheel on my quad and how do you torque the nut without the motor turning over? As of right now I am a one man show. Maybe I need some help to hold the wheel from spinning.
Thanks

i have heard of people using a penny to put between the fly wheel and the other gear touching the fly wheel.

I paid $119.95 from trail tech -6 flywheel. I ordered it about a month ago they were in production. They no longer have the -4 flywheel only the -6 flywheel. $6.95 for the gasket, and $19.95 for the flywheel puller. The flywheel is new no trade in.

Did you try an impact wrench? That should do the trick.

forgive me if this is a dumb question but whats the difference between stock and the -4 and -6 flywheels?

The weight of the flywheel which will affect how fast the engine revs and the torque...

i had the same problem when i put new clutch components in my 300ex.

whenever i tried to loosen or tighten that one center nut, the whole engine would crank over so i took it to my friends shop and used an impact and it worked perfectly :)
