HELP removing stock '01 lower blower pulley stuck

Lower blower pulley rotates off several rotations but stops as if there are no threads left. What gives. I'm using a breaker bar. Do I crank on it till something gives? Help greatly appreciated.

Did you unbolt the crankshaft support bracket (aka the cage)?

blower pulley

FlashSVT, Thanks much, no. My instructions from LFP say the pulley should spin off the adapter hub. Then I am to remove the adapter. I'll do it now. Thanks much!

I hope you didn't try too hard to turn it off. If you over-torque it without taking the cage bolts off, you would put huge loads into the crankshaft thrust bearing.
