Most Fords are 5/8"-18.

I have a power steering pump pulley installer that doubles as a balanced install tool. Pretty handy.

I just make sure all surfaces and threads are clean, push or rap lightly on the center of the balancer is in far enough to start threading the retaining bolt and tighten until it stops. If you get a lot p.s. resisyance, stop and check alignments.

Thats the way I've it, just wondered about a special tool. I've never used a dial indicator on setting up the fly & bell, but I'm using one this time.
