I guess you will

A STRAP WENCH MIGHT WORK, OR A PIPE WRENCH WITH RAGS, I DID IT ON THE ENGINE AND HELD THE BELT TIGHT.............FAST FREDDIE

Since you've already taken it off the car ... air gun would be my recommendation.

Impact wrench, just like when removing an alt nut.

How to hold it?

I used a pipe wrench , but first I wrapped the pulley with several layers of bike inner tube.The inner tuber enhanced the grip and protected the pulley from any gouges. It holds like a champ. On different occassions I used an impact wrench and a regular rachet with a long handle.

When you get it off you can buy a quick change pulley set
that are made from aluminum from BTM.Dont have the
web address.

You can change them in about 10min.

Damn, glad I finally got around to asking. Hadn't even thought of some of those things. Thanks for the help everyone. I'll go give it another try.
