Default How do I get this bitch off

Ok, I removed all of the bolts securing the crank pulley, but it won't budge, as I expected it wouldn't. So my question is, what's the easiest, fastest way to get it off?

crank pulley puller, WD-40, you can rent the puller or just buy one and your local Orielly or Autozone.

I just tapped around it with a rubber mallet and it loosened up enough to wiggle off.

Thanks, I'm going to try a rubber mallet since I already have one, and if that don't work, well I guess I'll have to get a crank puller tool, how much do these guys cost?

They're free. You rent them from autozone. You put down a $20 deposit and when you return it they give it back to you.

Rubber mallet works well for the pulley, if you want the hub out, you'll need the puller.
