Not the greatest day ever. (crank pulley)

On my way home from work my steering got heavy, my charge light comes on and my temp starts going up. Aww crap, I just knew my main pulley was no longer functioning. Yep, the engine was on but the pulley was not spinning. The crank bolt was finger tight. I was stuck on the side of the road until iwrock came along with his friend and a 27mm socket. Got the bolt tight and limped the car home. This is what I discovered once I was home.







Thank god there seems to be no serious damage to the crank or pulley, the dowel pins seem to have taken the brunt of the damage.

For the record I was the one who installed the ballencer/pulley last, over 3 years ago, so this is on me.
