    Bookmarked Update...

    I bought an 8" three-arm puller from Harbor Freight for $20.
    http://www.harborfreight.com/8-three...ler-69224.html
    Had to remove the radiator and fan, but it pulled the pulley off easily (have to remove 10mm bolt, clutch disk, and snap ring first though... and don't lose the shim(s)).

    I'm now in search of a new bearing.
    The original one poured all the balls onto the floor when I pulled the pulley out.
    There was no trace of the plastic from the bearing left.

    I have a lead on a bearing... going to stop by after work today.
    I'll update the thread with the part number when I find the right one.

    Next step will be to find a shop that will press out the old bearing and install the new one into the pulley.
