U plate or splitter.. whatever works.

I used a big honkin chinese 'pittsburgh' splitter.. it was plenty beefy.. I used a bottle jack, and backing plate. in the end I puleld the flange off the puleld on my C's crank nose. :(

I ended up splitting the remnant of the hub carefully with a die gringer about 80% of the way, staying out of the timing cover AND crank nose. then split it with a chissle.

some goofball had used EPOXY and glued the pulley on to the interference fit crank snout.

I got a new pulley, and added neverseize and grease to it after polishing the crank snout and cleaning up the front of the engine, governor, and putting a new seal / cover on..e tc.

used a 3/4 impact wrench and gr 8 bolt and piece of 1/2" plate cout round with a hole int he center as a pusher to reinstall the hub.

tain't coming off easy I can tell ya!

if you search back a couple months you may see threads from me working on my C.. many many pics Iposted of the repairs.. and pics others posted to help me.. especially puller setups.

I ended up building a backing plate using rods and a jack and a big bearing splitter.

idea was good.. just wasn't meant to deal with an epoxied on pulley that was already interference fit...

good luck

ps.. i hear some models have a set key.. not sure what you are working on.. etc..
