Removing vacuum pump pully

[larson]

Anyone have any recommendations on getting the pully off the old pump and on the new one? The only new pully I found on rock auto was for v belt's.
im assuming it's pressed on. I havnt taken the old one off the truck yet but plan to this weekend or next.

I think you can use a puller for power steering pulleys.

Don't try using a two or three leg bearing puller... if you do just buy a new pulley!

Ya same tool as the PS pump

the tool is cheap! you also need it to install the pulley, as they have special adapter to install it properly.
