crankshaft socket

[bfjou812]

Does anyone know where or if a crankshaft socket is available for a Mercruiser 470? This is to turn the crankshaft without the damper on the crankshaft. Thanks

DO NOT try using the crank bolt, it will break.
why not temp reinstall it.
Or remove the drive and have a old input shaft welded to a section of pipe to make a "T" handel tool

Jus a SWAG, but since the 470 is a Ford/Merc Frankenengine I'd try a Ford crank socket:
