Pulley Puller
chandlerz32,
Best to buy just the Pulley Boyz tool if you can't buy one second hand. A press would be great but, it would take a custom jig, and a generic puller I think would just taco the pulley.
I just did a swap and it was awkward at best getting the stock pulley off. I really mangled the stock pulley with even the Pulley Boyz puller (which I've learned apparently is a given), and "personalized" the tool. I would be very apprehensive about borrowing someone else's puller here, knowing now how much you can ding these things up in the operation.
Pulley Boyz instructions are good though, but follow them to the letter. Starting with the standard wrenches used with this tool (the brass colored threaded center press is a 1/2 head I learned the hard way) and even engine temp when you start. Then generously apply the anti-seize.
Best Luck,
Mark S
