Re: OMC universal flywheel puller truly universal?

Just sayin’ this in the interest of safety. Those bent eye bolts generally are not approved for lifting…period. There is a difference in the tensile strength of an ordinary bolt and the strength of a bent eye bolt. With the eye bolt, you are exerting a bending force (trying to straighten it out). Furthermore, it was already bent sharply where the shank meets the eye, and now you are trying to bend it in the opposite direction. We all know what happens when you bend a wire back and forth.

Again, just sayin’.
