does anyone in the dfw area have a pulley puller i can use. ordered a bunch of stuff and i really dont want to have to buy one for one use. any help is appreciated.

 

Call Vaughn from the roster list. be forewarned though, he won't do it for free.........take him a case of beer, its almost like a coupon to him...........

 

no no no take him a bottle of southern comfort. that will do the trick for him.he has a puller though and he works at firestone.

 

i have the zzp one ill let you use it for 20 bucks.....let me know

 

I would just let you borrow it but you have to stay at my house and switch the pulleys but I don't have one cuz I don't have a SS/SC and plus I live in San Antonio lol.

 

?????

 

Yeah can I use the pulley puller too? I want to take the pulley I have and put a bigger one on there. That won't be hard, considering i don't even have a supercharger / pulley on my car =\

 

sorry i missed this earlier
kadumel: ok is it an underdrive crank pulley? if it is then i should be able to do it,
Pin: i also can do the eatons blower pulleys- i have the ZZP puller II

am a certified mechanic working on my engineering bachelor so i tend to enforce my fair labor price

i work at firestone lewisvile 121 and any work i do has to play by their rules
but never sweat helping a cobalt guy with mods

i do check engine light diag, state inspection, brakes, suspension, alignments, motor work, clutches, cooling but no AC yet, some electrical, mostly front end and specific makes such as BMW and VWs(my initials)

but still i work for $$$ and beer, that pays my tool bill/college

Vaughn (match is what im called at work)

 

f*ing classic dude

 

also very classic

guilty as charged... but still pro moves tech

 

Japeater are you saying we will need to bring our car to firestone in order for the pulley to be pulled or will you do it on your own? How much personally and how much at Firestone? I'll be in Dallas next week so I might get you to do it.

 

my toolbox is at work and is 5 ft high, plus i have air tools and a lift in my bay if i need them
i could maybe make special arrangements but u would have to call me in advance
but most people who know me will tell ya if im not at the shop its my day off or im in class


call me and well talk

 

to clear up confusion
i own the pulley puller, not the shop
the company doesnt offer this as a service so it would be a cash deal and we would have to play by shop rules

also im gonna hit ya up if ya need tires or have issues(align, state< etc.) to make the shop $ and to have a ticket on your car so that it can legitly be in the shop.

sundays are the best for me cuz im usually the lead tech on sun.

like i said dont mid helping out the local guys but im not selling the shops privelages on the side
and no labor is ever free!

 

He did one helluva job flushing out my blinker fluid tank and refilling it and only charged me $500.00 he said his shop is the only shop in town that does blinker fluid flushes

 

he replaces air caps for your tires too. the labor only costs $350.00 for that... haha jk vaughn!

i recommend just calling him in advance, he is real good about working with people to help them out. plus he knows what the hell he is doing!!! and it doesnt hurt that he is local...

 

local or LOCO?

 

both

ya guys know i love the hype
stage 2 should be in this week hopefulley

 

i know almost everything about gm supercharged cars. dont need help. just dont want to have to purchase the puller with all the other things im ordering. no offense to anyone. but i did have a gp in the 12's so i think i know pretty much.

 

real mechanics never lend tools
sorry dude

 

I don't need a pulley puller, twas but a joke!

 

rent it out...

 

RPM doesnt rent out theirs either
im not in the tool renting business

im in the supercharged ASE Pro mechanic lifestyle

Evan: you need to see this guys lightning, we put a 3.0 on it sun, SFPH i think he said
except his didnt need to pull the blower to put his pulley on, he is gonna get a large tensioner pulley like yours too
he gave me 50 bux for R*R belt and pulley w/ hub

now if someone like had their blower off the car (AND DIDNT REQUIRE THE USE OF MY TOOLS TO REMOVE THE BLOWER)
i would say $30 + beer

If i was taking the blower off pressing the pulley reinstalling blower belt etc. i was thinking
150+ beer and ya maybe could talk me down alil PRIOR
cuz i am assuming a great deal of personal risk and responsibility handling your blower install

any wiring or injector, intake whatever, i would have to check it out before install as those tend to be more time consuming

also as most technicians will tell ya, it costs more when you are staring over my shoulder and asking annoying questions

but i know i wouldnt go give my shade tree mechanic only 10 bux to handle my blower which in case you are wondering is in the $1800 ball park if you can locate one!

but my approach is that you come to the shop I work at for maintenece and service and while your there get your mod put on
hey you guys initially recommended me, that says something.

 

Hey E, I put in those BKR8s seem to run fine, but the S/C makes some weird turbulent noises past 4.5K. Let me know when you want them.

 

still getting that misfire reaction with the 2 step plugs?

 

no didnt mean to **** anyone off. i'll come to you for the puller. i'll do the rest of the work before i get there. hell if cooper says you ok you must be.
