    Your impact probably doesn't have enough torque. Its a bit of a hassle, but if you use a breaker bar, it should be a little easier.


    "Remove the crank bolt using an impact if you have one. If not this is going to be a PITA for you to loosen. Then again the impact may not even take this off. You will need a breaker bar for sure. Have fun breaking it loose. Once it is off we now need that J-tool that will remove the pulley. If you don't have it or can't obtain one here is how you can make one in the next paragraph."

    They are.

    Difference is the GT Cam Gear vs. the GTP one.
