I'm having problems getting the stock crank pulley to come loose. I have my puller on there and as I am trying to tighten it up the motor keeps turning over. Any suggestions or tricks I could try besides an impact. Please and Thank You

 

Try pulling a spark plug out and putting some rope in the cylinder. Don't put too rope much in and don't crank on it too hard if the nut doesn't break loose at first. Good luck.

 

If you have a friend, place the truck in drive or 1st gear, place foot firmly on the brake and that should take care of it.

 

Well I weasel pissed the ***** out of it and have a bar in the puller itself wedged against the cross member and cranking on it with a 3 foot breaker bar and the piece of F*cking ***** still wont break loose. I've been at this pulley for atleast a couple hours now I am stumped on how to break this loose

 

well you got the right idea. When I took mine out we had to wedge a bar to stop it from turning and it took two of us on the breaker bar to break them loose. The impact gun just spun the shaft 90 degrees inside the socket so that was no help. Have you tried something like PB Blaster or Release All, some type of penetrating oil to help loosen them up. Its a PITA but you'll love it once its installed.

 

Yeah I got'er installed after a lot of fighting and swearing it started to slide off and I eventually got it off and the new pullies are on and going strong.

 

only took you nine months after the theft and all, glad you got them on and running

I think the red looks better on your truck than the titanium ones would have
