Default Crank pin problem, help!

Hello, I have this ATI crank pin kit #918993-1 and we are trying to pin stock balancer. Is it even possible with this kit or do I have wrong kit? Any pictures of this kit assembled would be very helpful!

It has to be done before the balancer is put on.

I was under the impression that the pinning kit you have listed was for an ATI balancer...

When I pinned my stock balancer, it was one pin through the front of the crank/balancer, and you do it with the balancer in place. The kit comes with a small template that the crank bolt goes through and holds it to the crank, and then you just drill through the hole in the template and insert the pin in that hole. The pin goes halfway into the balancer and halfway into the crank.

Hope that helps...like I said, not sure if the kit you bought was intended for the stock balancer or not.
