I dunno, it can take alot longer if you don't have the right tools on hand. Flywheel puller, 54mm socket, large breaker bar/pipe (or impact gun) are some that come to mind. Engine stand adapter...
Isn't it a 52 mm socket? I use 2 1/8", which is about 53 mm.

I usually use the online converters, but I was too lazy to check my "work."

25mm/inch may work for smaller sizes, but at a certain point the error in the precision accumulates to significant amounts

I use both a hammer and a prybar. I've used a scissors jack as both a spring compressor and a frame straightener. Beat that!
