Has anyone used this from an auto part store? Just taking off stock pulley and putting 2.8 on.
Also I heard people using an power steering module to press on new hub. Any input?

 

Im not touching this one.

 

Ok your cool..
A++ for you buddy

 

To take off a stock pulley you may be ok as they are pretty beefy. 3 pull points though could have the potential to bend the pulley in an odd way and maybe scrape the shaft. Idk, I've alway used a proper puller. But use at your own risk!

 

2.8? I though you was turbo

IDK about that type of puller, if not have you checked into renting a pulley puller? That or if the SC is already off a dealer should do it really cheap.

 

Hell, while you are at it, just use a hammer and chisel. Or go the distance and ask if you can borrow someones. Im sure there are a few people on here that would let you use theirs for a deposit.

And yes, i am cool

 

This is for a friends 07 ss. Just looking for input
Just if we can just rent these its better then spending an $100.00
But if its the best way then so be it

 

You think an dealer can do it if its off?
If so that will work if its cheap

 

Yeah, removing the stock pulley and pressing on the hub is part of the GM S2 install. Chevy dealer did mine when I had it but pretty sure any machine shop can do it.

 

Cool an dealer didnt even cross my mind. Ill call them tomorrow and see and hope they don't say some outrageous price
Thanks

 

I went that route. They then told me they needed to use a puller they used for a torque converter to remove it and god knows what to mash the hub on.

Long story short, I was out the money for them doing it and they wrecked the bearings in my SC, I ended up having to get a new SC. It made such bad sounds lol .

So make sure they know what they are doing, and the first guy you talk to isn't shocked that what your carrying is a supercharger off a Cobalt that came with it on.

Mine wasn't rigged.

 

i took mine to my shop we have a standing press. Hung the blower in it picked a small socket put on the shaft and pressed it out NOTE (be sure to catch blower LOL) and yes a power steering pulley installer works to press the hub on

 

Instead of possibly ruining your blower snout, just order this rental:
