🔧 Optimized OTC 7185 Power Steering Pump Pulley Review

I didn't have this type of puller in my collection so I couldn't remove the 1985 Ford F150 power steering pulley. I've tried using heated 2 and 3 jaw pullers but it tended to flex the pulley when I pushed forward so I stopped. After receiving the OTC puller, it took me 5 minutes to remove the pulley.

Required to tension the power steering pump pulley and alternator pulley on Chrysler products. Worth the price. I used a percussion gun and the pulley came loose from my 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee power steering pump. .Before use I lubricated the threads of the puller with oil and it worked like a watch. My puller was made in Taiwan and appears to be made of quality materials. I've tried tightening these pressed-on pulleys with 2 and 3-jaw pullers in the past to no avail. Don't waste time, use…
