That's understandable. I also used AI and it said the MGU pulley was 4 inches in diameter. I then measured it myself because that didn't seem correct. It is not 4 inches. it is 2.3.

I got mine off. It isn't impossible but it is difficult. I used a beefy puller with a cross supporting/clamping bolt. I'll put a picture below. Got it as tight as I possibly could on the front lip and sent it home with an impact after heating the pulley with a torch. When the puller arms were...

My math came out a little different. The crank pulley is 7.24 inches in diameter and the MGU pulley is 2.3 inches in diameter. That would be closer to 15,700 RPM on the MGU when the engine is at 5000 RPM. I could be missing something. I hope your math is better than mine because the fastest...

2021 Ram 1500 5.7.. I went with a 6305-2z/c3gjn bearing for the front but I'm not sure if it will last. Lets hope.

Ok. Ill answer my own question.... First off, you can't press the shaft through the pulley from the front side. The front bearing is held in with a snap ring so that will never work and you will damage the front housing if you try it. The shaft and pulley are coned and they mate together with...

I just started this process yesterday and the rear bearing was shot and the front bearing isn't far behind. The problem is, I can't get the dang front pulley off to save my life! I've tried 3 different pullers and a shop press with no luck. I've heated it as much as I thought was smart and I've...
