Power steering pump pulley stuck
I tried using the power steering pump pulley puller and the lip it hooks in to tore off. I tried using a 3 jaw puller and it just started bending the pulley. Any ideas on how to get this thing off?

Chuck it in the trash and find another one if it's that torn up. I have an issue with a mismatched pully arrangement on my truck. Meaning the pullies dont line up very well. I'm just going to wait and grab the pullies and brackets off a 307 when I find one with complete pullies and brackets. Ans swap the whole thing and be done with it. I'm almost positive my issue comes a previous owner used the water pump and pullies from a 73 - 74 350 and the alternator and power steering brackets from a 307. There is differences with the water pump snout lengths between 307s and older olds engines. So you have to swap the brackets waterpump / power steering pump and pullies all or nothing or you will have issues like me. Pullies can be expensive online and the 307 bracket and pulley swap is pretty cheap with junkyard parts but time consuming.
