I have 2001 Dodge 1500 pickup 360 ci.Bad water pump. I need to know to hold pump pully while turning 36mm
nut on fan shaft. Pully doesn't have mounting bolts to hold with plyers or screwdriver.

Hopefully leaving belt on will hold well enough or your imagination is needed. Perhaps with a helper grab the belt even harder to stick the pulley. Avoid messing it up with huge pliers. They make a specific tool for the large nut type fan clutch to water pumps and sometimes an air hammer is the best to break it free.

Double check NEW clutch + pump that it's threaded right hand! Not sure but it could be reverse threaded there so do verify that,

LARGE screrwdriver locked between the bolts on the pulley also works.



Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds
