I think that I braced it at a place where the torque wrench wouldn't be damaged... anyways, I haven't checked Sears yet... good idea to do so. I'm going to try the balancer puller since it seems to be the same concept as the SST, I'll keep y'all posted.

Eh, it did not seem too complicated to get out the old seals...just use a small flat screwdriver. Came right out for me.
As far as the getting the crank pulley off: you already got it off, no? So what is your Q with that? I just used an impact gun on my crank pulley bolt. I had to keep that gun on there for some time but it worked. In my experience the crank pulley just slid off with out a great deal of force. Actually, I took two 7M crank pulleys off and I did not need a puller for either of them. One, as I said, slid off with my hands. The other I had to tap it with a hammer a bit--NOT bash it because that will break the pulley. So from two experiences: the seals came off with just a flat screw driver and I did not need a puller for the crank pulley

^^^ what tony said. When I worked at Toyota in the 80's, I musta replaced 100 front crank seals on Celica and truck 20R and 22R engines, and the Corolla 2TC, 3TC, and others.
I might of used a dampner puller 2-3x. If they wouldn't come off by hand, I just used 2 BIG prybars, one on each side, and pulled a little. They would pop right off. I actually had to make sure I was ready to catch it, so it would not fall to the floor. A big screwdriver to pry out the seal. A ballpeen hammer to tap in the new seal. After a couple reworks cause it leaked again....this works... Upon install is to put a big bead of silicone gasket sealer in the cavity where the bolt is going back on. This will help prevent oil from seeping out along the crankshaft between it and the dampner, and under the bolthead.
