Has anyone ever swapped the pulley? Or you need to change out the whole pump?
Good morning guys. Walt, yes you can change just the pulley but you need one one of these tools to do so, Thanks GM!

So worn out lately. All I've been doing is teaching/instructing soldiers for the past couple weeks so I'm not the ONLY one in my Unit who knows tasks. Got one soldier fresh outta AIT, they started calling him Mini-me because he's always following me around. Lol

We got a 86 LWB 2wd rolling chassis (no engine of trans) trying to sell for 700obo. It had a 350 in it I yanked to sell off. Now stuck with the truck! Lol

No, I was a regular 1986 Long wheelbase, 2.8L V6 model someone swapped a Chevy 350 into. I sold off the engine and transmission and kept the LSD D44 axle. Put a 3.55 D35 back in it and was going to drop my spare 258 (4.2L) into it but bought my 86 5spd SWB instead.
