Well the issue is that the back plate of the pump and bearings can not withstand the pressing. How did you press it on set up wise?I used a press for my 64 pump
Thank yes I will use that to get the pulley off but without an internaly threaded shaft I don’t have a place to grip it.I think Autozone has a loan-a-tool that will press off the pulley and help you press it back onto the new pump. BE CAREFULL WITH THE PULLEY & don't pull on it at all around the outside (only near the center hub) or it will bend...those pulleys cost about $100 (ask me how I know)
It's been a couple years, but if I remember correctly, the tool grips around the "almost looks like a wrench would fit on it" part of the pulley (really the groove right behind it) & uses a "jack screw" which pushes on the center/threaded stud.Thank yes I will use that to get the pulley off but without an internaly threaded shaft I don’t have a place to grip it.
