looking at the pulley

is it counter clockwise or clockwise to remove?

is it reverse thread or a regular thread.

 

tryiing to remove the dang pulley and it wont budge, just making sure im twisting the right way, even in gear and stock belt on its still turning.

so a lil help from the ppl that got it on already

 

Its a standard thread. So righty tighty, lefty loosey.

 

ok great, i give up. i dont want to strip the bolt.

ill do it later

any more tips ppls?

 

You can't get the bolt out or the pulley off? For the bolt I would suggest using a good impact. I take mine off with a 1000ft-lb impact. I also install all my bolts with red loctite so the heavy duty impact can become a necessity.

 

my hoses are torn , but thats a good idea with the impact. ill get some hoses next week n ill try that.

thanks

 

counter clockwise to loosen...clockwise to tighten!

 

LOL righty tighty, lefty loosey. works all the time

 

As sad as it is I think of that all the time at work. I've even been caught saying it out loud sometimes.

 

1000 ft/lbs?? you don't mean inches?

1000 is a friggin monster!

 

No its ft-lbs. I use it for everything. Great for taking off old rusted bolts or crankshaft bolts. I am a flat rate mechanic so time is money. The last thing I need is to spend 20 minutes trying to get a bolt off. The best thing about it is most people don't believe its all that powerful because it has no kick, weighs nothing, and is incredibly quiet. As soon as you put it on a stubborn bolt though you can see the power.

 

try using a long braker bar with a pulley starper holder and do it that way remember to tq around 32-36 ft lbs i think it was make sure 1st... and i have 1 of those guns also.. 1000ft reverse 700 ft lbs forward and dont use a impact gun...

 

just use a strapwrench, wrap it around the pulley and u can use just hand tools if u want thats what i did, but if u swap the alternator ur def. gonna want the impact, but strapwrench is a huge lifesaver!

 

finally got the sucker on!

next stop is tuning the ultimate =)
