Made a few of these for holding the crank from spinning on A4's. $40.00 plus shipping. Nineball gave me permission to sell these as no sponsors are selling these at this time.

Aftermarket pulley


Stock pulley

 

I am tempted to get one, what a pita it is to get that puppy tight.

 

That's a good idea! I see how it bolts to the aftermarket pulley, but how does it stay on the stock pulley? And then where does it attach to the car to hold it, to the front sway bar? Or is that piece of channel iron in the pic a handle to hold it with?

 

I can never get it any tighter than with my earthquake:

...although that wristwatch with stretchy metal band looks pretty sweet.

 

It has an 18" handle, you can hold it by hand, rest it against the ground if the car isn't on a lift or take a small section of chain/rope and wrap around the sway bar. The 1" pins on the tool make contact with the webbing of the stock pulley and will hold it in place.

 

That wasn't me, that was my model
