Power Steering Pump Pulley Removal
Hello all:
I have my pump out of the reservoir and am ready to pull the pulley. I borrowed a pulley puller from advanced. As far as I'm aware the 3/8" hex bolt needs to be removed before the pulley can be pulled...now is this a left or right-hand thread? Also, any tips on holding the pulley/pump steady while I try to get the bolt out? It's stuck in there pretty good!
Thanks,
Riley

You can wrap an old v-belt around the pulley and hold it tight while turning the nut. Usually I use an air-gun and just blip it a few times and it'll normally come right off
If it's a cast pulley don't put it in the vise or pry on it as they are easy to break
