Step 1:  

Remove the 10mm bolts holding  the coolant overflow to the fan  shroud. Move the overflow out  of the way so that you can  access the supercharger belt  tensioner.


Step 2:  

Using a 3/8” ratchet apply  pressure on the belt tensioner  so that you can remove the  Super charger belt from the  pulley. **Note: Just fold the  belt out of the way, there is no  need to remove it.


Removal

Step 3:  

Using the supplied #10-24  screws (3) and hex key, attach  proper sized adapter plate to  the tool, with the beveled edge  and engraving facing up.


Step 4:  

Apply anti-seize lubricant  (included) to the main bolt  threads and the faces of the  steel spacer used in the following step.


Step 5:  

Remove plastic cap from end of  supercharger shaft, and insert  steel spacer.  


Step 6:  

Slide the tool over the pulley  until it is seated over the  grooves, under the lip, and hand  tighten the center bolt until the  spacer slides into the end.


Step 7:  

Insert the torque bar into the  end of the top plate, and the  box end of a 7/8” wrench on the  center bolt.  


Step 8:  

Holding the torque bar still,  tighten the center bolt with the  wrench until the pulley is  pressed off.  


** Discard old pulley. Do  NOT attempt to reinstall!  **


Installation

Step 1:  

Make sure supercharger shaft is  clean and free of any fluids or  debris.  


Step 2:  

Remove center bolt from tool.  


Step 3:  

Screw the set screw into the end  of the center bolt.  


Step 4:  

Install approximately half way  onto the bolt in order:  


a.Flange nut facing towards the  pulley  


b.Thrust bearing  


c.Washer


Step 5:  

Slide your new pulley onto the  supercharger shaft. The pulley  has a counter bore that will help  to align it perfectly straight.  


Step 6:  

Screw the center bolt assembly  into the supercharger shaft until  hand tight.


Step 7:  

Hand tighten the flange nut until  the washer contacts the pulley.  


Step 8:  

Place the box end of a 1 1/16”  wrench on the flange nut, and a  7/8” wrench on the end of the  center bolt.  


Step 9:  

Tighten the flange nut to press  the pulley on, holding the center  bolt still. ** Only use the 7/8”  wrench to counteract the flange  nut wrench. Tightening the  center bolt can cause the set  screw to snap **


Step 10:

Continue pressing the pulley on until the pulley snout is flush with the supercharger shaft. The flange nut will not tighten any further.

Step 11: 

Unscrew center bolt assembly from the supercharger shaft, reinstall belt, and reinstall plastic center cap.
