Remove converter bolts.

Hello, I am having to replace the engine in my 2007 Ford Ranger and removing the Converter bolts and replacing them is very hard to do by yourself. So I figured I would make something that would hold the flywheel in place while I was loosing the Converter bolts. You see in the pictures it's just a piece of angle aluminum I cut to go in between the teeth of the flywheel to hold it in place, I just hold the piece with a vise grip, works great. Hope it helps out.


Here you can see the piece of aluminum I cut and the vise grip I used.

Here they are in place doing their job.
