Went to do my timing belt today and for the life of me i can not remove the UDP i installed when i did the belt the first time. Cant use the puller from autozone becuase this pulley is solid (no cutouts in the center like stock). tried using my 5ton 3/2 leg pulley puller and have done nothing but rip and bend the outside lip of the pulley apart. Anyone else have anything i can try and remove this bitch? i was thinkin maybe tring the puller again but using a blow torch to heat up the center of the pulley and tring that.

You are supposed to use a harmonic pulley puller on UDPs - at least every brand I've ever used has 3 holes where the puller will screw in to.

You are *not* supposed to use the puller that grabs on to that lip on the center part!

The UR UDP has the marks to take it off using the center holes.

But, 90% of them use the three screw holes on the face of the pulley.

Not be an ass, but when you installed the UDP did you consider how to get it off when the time came?

Does it have threaded holes in the body of the pulley? As Teklein mentioned the majority of UDPs on the market need a three bolt puller.
