    I know it’s not a taco but still a yota, and boosted at that, all be it a 6.5 Turbo Diesel. Been pulling this one out with a thrown rod carnage to drop another in...

    I've posted a picture of it before actually. It's just a 8" 3/8 extension tied to a swiveling 3/8 tied to a shorty 3-4" 3/8 extension tied to a swiveling 5/8 Mac tools 3/8 socket. Easy peasy.

    Well done. I will say, some of the best work I've ever done involved an obtuse use of spacers.

    At what point do we need a spacer? I have a 2.7 smooth flow. Do I need a spacer?

    Based on previous posts, I understand he has a PulleyBoys hub and is swapping from one of their pulleys to a Smoothflow...
    It's not a matter of smaller pulleys requiring a spacer. Whether or not you need one depends on the hub/pulley combo and how "deeply" the hub is seated.

    You don't really need the coating anyways.
