How do you get the pully off it looks like there are threds in it but i am not sure

you will need a clamshell puller or a press you can do on the tractor but its a pain may as pull the motor off and drop the crank then you do rear main also

Do not use a jaw puller you will break the pulley.

heat, penetrating lube of your choice, light raps from a hammer and a puller. I have used a regular puller but it is questionable. Both times I felt I was close to breaking the pulley but luckily they came off, so it does work but you have to be careful. Clamshell style puller would be best but I don't have one. If you use a jaw puller screw a bold into the crank so you don't strip the threads. You will need the threads to tighten the pulley back to the crank. There are some youtube videos that show how to do it. To be clear the pulley is not threaded onto the crank, it is pressed on like a sleeve.

You need what Bigdod made for his Cub using a bottle jack or a hydraulic ram. Hal

I used a bearing separator from a Harbor Freight puller set and a large 2/3 jaw puller I got from Tractor Supply. A crescent wrench was used to keep the puller from moving. The 5/8"-13 bolt threaded into the crankshaft has a center drilled in the head for the puller bolt to seat into. I used some rubber from a bad tube as a washer to aid with twisting, but not sure it helped. Came off hard but didn't break.
