Put the correct size socket on a breaker bar, place on the main pulley bolt, and rotate clockwise.

Edit; Forgot to mention you gotta put the parking brake on and put the trans in neutral.

If your under the Jeep take a Big ash screwdriver with you. Wedge the SD against a tooth or two and side of the trans case and pry up, the fly wheel will move around. Slow put them your not up and down twenty nine times either.
