So yea, I went to install my GMPP Stage 2 kit today and everybody said I needed a pulley puller, and halfway through the day I started to believe that. After doing a ton of **** I probably shouldn't have done I took a die grinder and cutting wheel to remove the stock pulley haha and now it's got the 3" on it and it runs like a champ.

 

Dude, how the hell did you put on the 3" pulley without the pulley tool. Thats almost impossible.

 

Pound the hub on with a rubber mallet. Mine for some reason would NOT go on any urther and was 1/8inch away from being on. Rubber Mallet FTW!

 

rubber mallot FTL

and what in the hell is a rubber malter lol jp

 

You could also find a bolt with the proper pitch and sized threads and use some washers and turn the bolt and it will press the hub on for you. Thats what i did and it worked beautifully

 

I just hope you didn't **** up the bearings and **** punding on it like that.. It is pretty much specifically said that you really shouldn't do that.
but the bolt trick def works I"ve had to do that a few times when the bolt on my puller stipepd.. since for some reason the ZZP puller only works like 4 times before it ***** up.

 

oh dear..

you could have killed the bearings in the cover. There is a reason they tell you to do it a certain way. Your pounding force went directly through the "Radial Bearings" in an "AXIAL" direction... (i.e. not good)

 

Fo SHEEEEEEEEZY on what they said.

 

I wonder how long until the "my suprercharger is making a **** load of noise" thread.....

 

Heh, mine makes a shitload of noise on cold starts. Im always like wtf?

 

Wow, that was super ghetto of you. Instead of getting the right tool for the job, you completely destroy one part removing it, and most likely damaged another part putting back together. This is a classic example of having absolutely no patience.

I'm betting since this the GM Stage 2 kit, you are also running around with your new injectors installed without having done the reflash yet too.

Slow down and do things right the first time. It will save you a lot of headaches later.

 

Just a suggestion next time you do something like this don't advertise on a forum.It works really good with a nut and bolt some washers and a bit of oil.

 

The title should of said "I f@#ked up my bearings, but pulley pullers are for pussies!"

 

I swear last night when I read this It did no tmake sence! I was drunk though.
