We made one when we pulled the bolt on the old 4Runner last summer
to replace the head gaskets etc.
Basically a steel plate with a hole in the middle to put the socket
on the rattle gun through and smaller holes to bolt to the dampener
in the spots intended for the bolts that hold the pulley onto the
dampener and a steel bar arm that is long enough to sit on the frame
rail.
You need a big torque wrench for 400 foot pounds. I bought a 3/4
drive wrench that is about 4 feet long.

400 ft. lb.? Bah! put a long 1/2" breaker bar on it and tighten it
snug. I never had one come out in 40 years of working on MB diesels.
(not that it couldn't) Put 80 on it and it will stay put.
400 ft lb likely WILL pop the bolt or cause a fracture that leads to
this kind of failure.
