Harmonic Balancer

I have been reading this thread for quite some time but have never seen any DIY stuff on replacing the harmonic balancer. Is there something out there on this or does someone have some advice other than a mechanic?

that is a good post, but keep in mind the torque spec is 147lbs plus 90 degrees.

use a new bolt.
