I wonder is it really necessary to remove the balancer?
Ok so now I will go find that other post to me

Have any more of you done this job since? Any word on how necessary it is to remove the water pump/harmonic balancer? Was lifting the engine a few inches needed? Dropping the subframe?
Seen mixed reviews about everything needed, just want to streamline this job as much as possible once I start ripping everything apart.
