Anybody ever removed an alternator pulley? I bought those AEM power pulleys (I know, a waste of money right?) I got them for 50 bucks so whatever. Anyway, I was able to get the power steering one on, but I can get the damn alternator pulley off. I even took the alternator out, and still couldn't get it off.

Am I just retarted or is there some special way to take it off.

You need offset wrenches or an air gun to get the nut off.

There are two nuts do I have to take off both of them. I'm guessing so. Even if I had an impact wrench wouldn't the pulley spin when I'm trying to get it off.

There is one nut. That smaller peice in the middle is for another wrench to hold onto so you can break the nut free.

If you use a impact gun, you can just hold the pulley lightly and use the force of the gun to get the pulley off.

ha ha thats funny. I sat there for about 3 hours trying to get the little nut off of the big nut. No wonder I couldn't get it. Well, it looks like I'm going to buy a impact wrench.
