3 jaw puller and a quality 3/8" socket upside down to protect the crank.

Autozone chrysler 3 jaw puller. Make sure you get the right one. First time I got the wrong one and the bolt snapped off!

I've used an OTC 6667 Puller. Works great.

I have a 3 jaw puller with a socket stuck on the end to get enough length to pull a pulley completely off.
