Default Minneapolis Suburb Crank Pulley install help requested

Hey guys. So I am stuck. I need to install my crank pulley but the tool I got from autozone on loan is too short to get to the crank bolt threads in the crank snout. I am on a tight budget and really don't want to buy the tool online and pay all that money for one time use.

I am hoping that someone who has the tool would be willing to let me use it or rent it.

What tool are you referring to? I have a the correct length and thread pitched ready-rod and washer with a nut and drive it on, then remove and install ARP bolt to spec.

That is the the safest way to do it without the risk of damaging the crank threads.

I bought the tool and installed my crank pulley. I was referring to the one used to press the pulley on to the crank snout.
