Does anyone have experience with the mini madness pully remover. It appears that it does away with the whole dissassembly mess by splitting the original pully for removal. Any help would be appreciated

Actually Silver, the Mania requires the same amount of disassembly - you still have to be able to get at the pulley on the supercharger.

We loan out the tool we use that utilizes a standard puller (duck's foot type) and don't charge for it. If you don't send it back, I charge you $500 and then sned Vinnie and the boys to your house.

The Mania one works, and involves drilling into the pulley a few times toward the shaft, then splitting it.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I'd highly recommend the right puller for the job - I happened to coincide my pulley removal/replacement with Randy's trip to FL. Removing the stock pulley turned into a 5 hour ordeal, and normal 2-ton pullers simply bent the stock pulley like it was taffy.

Next time I'll wait a week! Do yourself a favor and avail yourself of Randy's puller tool.

Hi Randy,

I keep missing all the great group buys involving you. What am I doing wrong?

I'm especially upset with myself for missing the your pully/chip special that was held in Cinci (I think)? Will this happen again someday/somewhere around Michigan or will I have to drive out to where you are?

Thanks for all your great advice....any news on UUC?
:smile:
