Don't use it or it can result in damaged threads. Buy threaded rod and make an installation tool. Do a search, you will see why.

Might be dumb, but can't you just go to your local parts store and rent a balancer install tool?

Maybe, but I have not seen one with the metric threads. Autozone might have one but the tool can be made for around $20.
