power steering pump pulley

How do you remove the pulley on a 97 f350 we tried for an hour and a half this evenin. Neither air tools or a breaker bar would do the trick

there is a kit that has a special clamp and washer with a screw that fits on the front of the pulley to remove it and press it on. they usually have them at the auto parts store that you can use for free.

If I'm not mistaken, the puller you need will look something like this.

Ford used 2 different size lips on the pulley flange for removal. The smaller, "C" shaped one fits the Superduties. The one with the stud and thrust bearing is the installer.

I had one like that for Chrysler alternator pulleys. I ground down the hooks to fit the pulley on the OBS diesel vacuum pump.

Yep, these are the correct ones for Fords. Need one for the removal, and a different one for the install.

I think the one I posted a picture of will help you get the pulley off, but not back on. The ones Mueckster posted would be the ones you need to do both.

This is to remove the distributor gear on a gas burner when replacing the stator.

I used the first posted pic to pull the gear off my vacuum pump pulley and the threaded presser to put the pulley on the new pump. I've heard the vacuum pump may be the same size as the power steering pump, but I haven't confirmed.
