I'm trying to finally put the alternator pulley in and I'm having problems getting it done. I finally removed the alternator after having to get a swiveling long arm ratchet to get the bottom bolt off, but now I'm trying to figure out how to get the pulley off of the Alternator. the bolt is 22mm and the shaft has a 10mm 6pt head on it. Anyone know of a trick to actually get it off? Once i finally get the torque on it it slips and I would prefer not to round off the shaft head(that is what slips right now.

I had to put the pulley in my vise the first time.
