Power Steering Pump/Pully

I have a 1980 Bronco with a 4.9L/300ci I-6... I'm trying to mount the power steering pump onto the bracket, but the pull seems to be in the way. I've tried using a puller to get it off, but that didn't seem to work... Any ideas as to how to remove the pulley?

If you go to your local big box auto part store, they will likely have a loaner PS pulley puller.
Most lend for free with a refundable deposit.

I have a pulley and I tried using it, but it started warping the pulley itself which tells me I either have the improper puller or that it isn't pressed on... Any other ideas?

You need this one to pull it off, AND put it back on. You can break the pump if you use the wrong puller

I got this exact one and it works awesome:
Amazon Amazon

It grabs the pulley at the hub area in center near the shaft.




To install new pulley, I use a bolt with a nut and washer to press it onto the shaft.

You can also take your old and new pumps to the parts store and the will help you change them.
