My inlaws lent me a pretty decent compressor. It's a Campbell Hausfield which I believe will crank out 5.5 CFM @ 90PSI. I borrowed an IR 600lb impact from a guy that I work with and that didn't do it. I cranked that compressor all the way up to 125ft-lbs and hammered away at it for a good 5 minutes straight. Nothing. The bolts I had put into the pulley to hold it still came right out though, just from the vibration...

I found the special tool for cheap on ebay, so I went ahead and ordered it. I also have a second breaker bar coming. I will hook all that up and jump up and down on it a few times. If that doesn't do it, Aircat makes a 1,000 lb impact for $129. I could pick that up and I think I would still be saving money over having a mechanic do this job for me. Plus a good impact would be a nice addition to my tool inventory. No bolt would ever talk smack to me again!
