Probably a threaded rod with a big nut and a lot of washers? Where did you get the threaded rod?
I know a lot of people use the bolt to pull it on but in afraid of jacking up the thread. |

I've used this several times with some anti seize on the the threads without incident:
http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/catalo...nk-pulley-bolt/ Pull it down most of the way with that, then use old bolt to get it the rest of the way. Then install new bolt and go. That said a stud would be a lot better/safer. With the current aluminum hub ATI balancer, I left the garage cracked over night to in the winter to get the crank nice and cool. Then I tossed the hub in the oven at 250 or maybe it was 300° for 30 minutes and it slid on very easily. |
