Power steering pump pulley bolt (1 Viewer)

Am starting to do the head gasket on my 62. I have been spraying pb blaster on this bolt every day for a week and still cannot get the damn thing off. Anyone know an easier way to get it off then holding the belt in place?

I did this recently on my 3FE - with the belt tightened as much as possible, I put a 6-point socket with a 1/2-inch drive breaker bar on it. I had to steady the breaker bar near the socket with one hand then hit the far end of the breaker bar with a heavy hammer repeatedly. IIRC it came loose after five or six blows.

Impact gun should get that right off.

Yes I just couldn't get it in there. I just ordered a swivel socket set so I'm hoping with that and my impact driver I should be solid. We'll see!
