Well......does anybody have a pulley puller?
 

So I started my car to let it warm up while I get my stuff ready for my game. I come back out to put my bag in the car and hear a strange metallic noise. I pop the hood and find this.....

Wow the backside of the pulley seperated from the rest of it? Damn how tight is that belt? lol

Ouch that sucks Magoo !

I wish I could help you but my pulley puller grew legs and walked away .

No it didn't Jeff, it's safe and sound Mike borrowed it and loaned it to me so I could put my 2 piece on......... I still have it in a box in my garage.

Hell I never knew Mike even borrowed it !

Well there you go Magoo one pulley puller to use .

Gotta love those happy endings. :Group Hug:

WOW! And it's a Reichard too. I would call Reichard and have them send you a pulley tool with a new pulley. Free of charge of course....:)

I'm going to call Lethal today along with RR and see if they'll warranty it, the pulley is only about two years old. The belt is pretty damn tight, but I can't see it being tight enough make the pulley seperate like this. Well Jeff....um....thanks for letting me borrow you're puller! :lol:

Well I will be dipped in shit!!! I have hunted an blamed everyone I know with a blower, trying to find that thing, and come to find out Mike had it. Well atleast I don't have to buy Jeff a new one.

I didn't know either! I thought Donnie, Devane, or David had it. I don't remember giving it to Mike..:?

Is that he same RR that use to blow up Marauders all the time, because they didn't know how to tune them? If so I am glad to see that their quality didn't change..

Uh huh *patiently waits on apology for being accused*.......

I'm not sure that Reichard ever did any tuning?

Well I appogise! I just never thought Mike to be a tool thieving bastard. Ban Mike! Ban Mike!

Just make sure I get it back when you are done, and I still have your gas can, you never picked up..

Hahahaha!! :lol:

Damn I forgot about that thing!! Shows you how long its been since I've sprayed the car! I'll have the bring the bottle with me when I pick it up so I can finally put it to some good use.....

Damn I forgot all about the puller. Sorry about that Jeff, Darryl, and Magoo.

I guess I counted on Randy bringing it back. :poke:

It's ok.............you can just re-ban yourself....:bigthumb:

Thats REINHART ... down in Jax. Mine hasnt blown up either ... REINHART ...


:bob

Well Jim at Reichard agreed to send me a new pulley if I send back the old one. But he doesn't make the 2.75 anymore, I have to decide whether I want a 2.65 or 2.80 pulley to replace it.

With the 2.80,you wouldn't have to retune..........

I know a few years back right after the Marauder came out, there was a bunch of Marauder owners that couldn't stand some Reinhart guy, because he blew up a few different Marauders. I am not sure where he is from, but he did tunes and supercharger mods to them, and blew them up on the dyno before the owners got them back.

Yea, get the bigger pulley. You don't need to go any faster!:cheers

2.65! Mo Powah!

LOL, either way it won't be a big difference. A 2.80 is about 1/4lb less boost and the 2.65 is about 1/3lb more boost. I'll probably get the 2.65 pulley, my A/F was mid 11's I'm sure there's enough room for another 1/3lb of boost.

DAMN IT!

LOL

If only we could run those kind of times at the track on an Eaton.:cry:

Of course you could, just lose some weight..... :bigthumb:

Are you calling me fat? :hysterical:

I'm saying that your truck with you in it is a fat bastard. Take it as you will.......:hysterical:

Skinny bitch:poke::cheers

Glad you got everything resolved:bigthumb:

You know I'm not too shy of 200lbs.... :cheers

Ive seen ya before.

As I remember your skinny but built. So when are you going to be able to make another apperance at the track?

I cant wait to see it run with the new mods.

I'd love to be at the track every weekend I just haven't had the time. The club has been pretty slow lately with everybody afraid to spend money so I'm having to spend more and more time there trying to renew members and recruit new members. My only real day off is Sunday and I have games every Sunday so it's tough to make it out to the track. I'd love to go soon though, and get all this rust off! Once I get this pulley swapped and get the car on the dyno to make sure everythings ok I'll make some time to come out there. I'm itching more than anybody to see what the car would run, if I can manage to actually drive it that is.......:hide:

Well a little update on this thread. I still don't have a pulley. I shipped the pulley off the week of May 26th. According to USPS it arrived to his shop on the 30th. We spoke and agreed on a 2.65 pulley to replace my 2.75. He explained me they had been hit by lightning and had to have some machines replaced that had been damaged before he could make me a pulley. He said he would be about a week maybe two before I recieved the pulley. A few weeks later I sent him the pictures that I posted on here to show him that I didn't damage the pulley myself, he thought the pulley coming apart might have been my fault. Then after not receiving a pulley or an update I called him on July 9th and 10th to leave messages. I called him again today the 14th and finally got ahold of him. He explained to me that he just got his parts for the machines on Friday and spent the whole weekend getting everything setup. So it will take another week or two before he can get a pulley out to me. I explained that I need a pulley before next week as I need it to drive to Mustang Week. He assured me that he will have it to me by the beginning of next week so I'll have it in time. I'm hoping he'll stand by his word, we'll see what happens next week.

Glad it is not your "Daily Driver"!!!

good luck magoo. Hopefully my piece will be ready for mustang week too.

Me too!! I haven't driven the since the beginning of May and it's driving me crazy! In 7 1/2 months she's seen 450 miles!!!!

WOW. Don't try to be like me with the mileage thing! :bigthumb: :hysterical:
I now have 4500 miles on the Saleen!
