Was able to get it out threw the inspection window. Bike seams back to normal for the most part, maybe some vibration, but might of been that much before. Free reving again.

Been using impacts to bust compensators loose oh harleys about 40 years nowand I've yet to tweak a flywheel doing it and we're into triple digits for numbers worked on. On the other hand I've had to fight buggered up parts many times from well meaning knuckle draggers and their breaker bars rounding **** off.
How do you guys think these things are assembled on the line? There isn't some gorilla with a 4 ft breaker and jam bar it's a regulated torque monitoring impact.......

you're the same guy mixing 10W-40 and ATF and putting it in your primary?

No way is an impact going to twist a '99 to '02 TC crank with the additional support of the Timken 'lefty' bearing. With stator and drive belt replacements over the last 165,000 miles, I've wacked that crank with an impact on my '00 TC at least a half dozen times. It's still a smooth running motor. And yes, shops use impacts on HD cranks.

As said crank is fine. Bike is on the road for a week and running like a champ. Will I use impact in the future to break loose? not sure. Sure glad I didn't have to call darkhorse and tear everthing down. Hoping to get 200,000 miles before I have to worry about that
