Is there a special three arm puller for the damper or will most work? The one I have must be too big because I can't get the arms hooked on the damper.

When I was getting mine off I tried this really small black one that was recommended for LS1s but couldn't get it to work. I ended up just using one of the medium sized pullers they happened to have at the place I was doing the swap.

When you go there, tell them you need a puller for a chrysler. I went and asked them for a three armed puller, and they looked at me like I was on crack.

I have always gone to Auto Zone or Advanced Auto and told them I needed a 5 ton 3 jaw pulley puller. Always worked like a champ.
