I am taking off all my brackets, so I tried taking off the power steering pulley with a puller I had and it ripped off some of the part that is used to pull the pulley. So I went and I bought a new puller and installer, and right now I finished ripping off another chunk of the part. How the hell do you get the damn pulley off? I figured it was just pulling it, but what the f*** is this.

How about a pic of the puller your using. I used a Discount Auto Parts special on Rogers car and it popped right off. Your in a heap of trouble right now. Spray some lub somewhere, that puppy is tight.

That pulley is toast, time to cut it off. Cut the pulley and not the power steering shaft obviously. You got air tools and a cut off wheel right? I've been staring at the first pic. Should take two cuts in the center section. Cut towards the power steering pump. One on the top, one of the bottom. Should fall apart after that.

Here is the pic of the puller



I guess no one ever took the pulley off before me. Does the fox one fit?

yellow- I have a balancer puller, lets see what I can think of.

Well I just tried your idea yellow an all I did was twist the pulley. Now I definetly need to cut it off, and I probably screwed up my damn pump.

I'd say that mofo is super rusted on.... If you get hung up on the pulley, give a shout...i have my old one hanging around, it yours if you need it....

looks like the right puller...you were holding the longer bolt, and unscrewing the nut next to the pulley...right???

Man, thats the exact same thing that happened to me (threads inside stripped out putting it on).. This time around i decided to avoid it completely and grind a wrench down to slide in to reach that one bolt behind the pulley.
