Also how are yo guys installing the balancer? Hammer and socket or with an installation tool?

I had a guy use a large hammer and crack the thrust bearing. This caused the crank to move forward which made contact the cover and kill the seal in a matter of seconds.
Might be a good idea to install the balancer with the cover bolts a tad loose pan dropped, then tighten them after the balanced is on.
