Hold the pulley with a strap wrench and use an impact to zip the nut off. Sometimes you can do it while the alternator and serp belt are still installed.

Don't even need the strap wrench. If you don't have an impact, take it by autozone or one of the other parts places, they should have one and be able to swap pulleys for you.
