Installation Tools

Installation Tools: the right kit beats a hammer and hope

Installation tools are the job-specific pullers, installers, studs and fitting kits that let you seat and remove engine parts without wrecking them. A crankshaft damper pressed on cockeyed, a crankcase forced together with a mallet, or a turbo fitting cross-threaded because you had no proper adapter - those are the failures the right installation tools exist to prevent. The kit does the alignment and the pulling force so the part goes on straight, square and to the load it was designed for.

The mechanical job is simple to describe and hard to fake. A damper installer threads into the crank nose and draws the damper on evenly; a crankcase installation kit holds and guides the cases as they come together; a turbo fitting install kit gives you the correct adapters to land oil and coolant lines cleanly. Each one saves a part you would otherwise damage.

What ThreePiece stocks

This is a focused category: 5 products currently in stock across 3 brands - ATI, Torque Solution and S&S Cycle. Prices run from $47 to $252, which is the current range for what is on the shelf, not a standing quote.

ATI accounts for most of the range. The ATI Puller Installer Pro Kit for dampers sits at the top of the price spread, with the ATI installation stud and washer in M18x1.5x3.0 covering Duramax and Toyota 2JZ damper work as a metric adapter. For forced-induction plumbing, the Torque Solution BMW B58 Gen2 turbo fitting install kit is here, and for V-twin builds the S&S Cycle crankcase installation kit fits 2007-2016 Harley-Davidson Touring.

How to choose

Pick by the job, not the badge. If you are pressing a damper, you want the correct installer and the matching stud thread - the ATI kit and the M18x1.5x3.0 adapter address different parts of the same task, so check your crank nose thread before ordering. Vehicle names in these products point you straight: BMW B58 for the Torque Solution kit, Duramax and Toyota 2JZ for the ATI stud, and Harley-Davidson Touring for the S&S Cycle case kit. Buy the tool that matches the fastener size and part you are actually working on; a general kit that nearly fits is the fast route to a rounded stud.

What else you need with it

Installation tools go with the parts they install. Damper and crankcase work usually means fresh bearings and the correct gasket kits or head gaskets going back together. Turbo fitting jobs pair with fittings and adapters. Browse the full Engine Components section for related hardware.

Fitment help and ordering

Only one product in this category carries structured fitment data, and vehicle references otherwise come from the product names, so confirm the tool matches your part before you order. Call fitment help at 813-535-5801 or reach us through contact us with your engine and part details. All orders ship free, and Affirm and Katapult financing is available.
