Crank Pulley
a lot of people use a breaker bar and wedge it against the ground and blip the starter. I used a helper and wedged somthing against the flywheel under the car while he broke free the nut.

are you asking about getting the nut off or the actual pulley? do the nut the breaker bar way, and then I think there is a clip you have to take out.
then getting the actually pulley off, you just slide it off. sounds easy, but you have to do it perfectly straight, tilt it a little bit and it'll get stuck (same goes for putting it back on). There is a notch that needs to be lined up as well when putting it back on (pretty self explanatory once you get there though).

A nice impact wrench can help you get the nut off. Removing the pulley shouldn't be too bad. If you need to work it loose, use a block of wood and a hammer, but do so carefully. It has a small groove in the shaft, so it's not too hard to place back on properly.
