If you have proper tools, it should be a piece of cake.

No, one of the pulleys isn't going to fit. OBX pulleys seem to suck.

Yeah like Redz said. The Power Steering pulley will not fit. No splines. But the water pump pulley will fit fine.

A machining shop can probably add the splines for you since you already bought the pulley. You will go through a lot added hassle for that pulley to fit though.

Should've used the Search feature before you bought em.

I say yes, but I wouldnt mind a second opinion. I had one never installed it and got the GIM one. They both looked the same and had the same depth and size grove but I never actually installed the OBX one.
