Question Help with Pulleys!

So I got a GFB Pulley kit and I know how to get the crank pulley off but the alternator pulley won't budge and the only faq i can find says use an air ratchet/gun but I don't have one. Any one have any tricks that don't involve special tools. Or is there anyone that would loosen it for me... that’s all I really need.

Thanks in advance,
Joe

Naw thats not the problem its that the pulley spins so the faq i saw said leave the belt on the put an air gun on it. The way the air gun is just a bunch of impacts loosens it up.

Oh and thanks for the offer might take you up on it if i dont' find something closer.

I had the same problem, well... when I was parting out my Legacy I needed to get the UD crank pulley off but a breaker bar didn't work and I didn't have an airtool, so my insurance company ended up picking up my car since it was a total loss from when I was in an accident, and I never had a chance to get the dam thing off.
