The final bolt is kinda shrouded by the PS pulley to remove the driver side front cover bracket assembly which holds the PS and the A/C?

I've tried the three jawed puller from Sears (just bought it), and it doesn't quite seem to do the job? I can get a open ended wrench on it from the side, but that's it, all I can do is round the bolt a little, I need to get a full socket on it to get it off (all the bolts are kinda frozen in place, requires a lot of force to back off).

thanks for any help. If I continue to have problems I will simply bend the PS pulley a little, and ham the closed end of a 9/16 wrench on it and power it off. I'm trying to avoid warping my pulley though. Thanks

Dont know. I tried to when I had my motor out but it was a bitch as I can see it is for you to. Have you gotten it off by now, if and when you do let us know how.

dont give up hope yet! my friend had a cam and heads put on his sn-95 5.0 and he ran into the same problem. he found a tool at atool rental shop that helped him remove it with ease. give me a day or so to call him to find out were he got this special tool. the shop owner was so cool that he didnt even charge him for the rental !

Shade it takes a powersteering pulley puller. the 3 jaw puller will not work

3 jaw puller will work but you need to be persistant. I have taken off numerous ones with that same puller from a Pep/Kragen type of place.

There is a dedicated puller to remove those. As mentioned above, a three jaw will only cause more problems for you. I'm sure at Autozone or whatever parts house is near you will have a power steering pulley puller. The one I have is from snap-on.
