yess. Lots of guys have had lose crank bolts and been okay. Besides the havoc they played on the pullies and accessories, but engine wise, you are more than likely okay. "More than likely". Pin it and fix the pullies, and get back on the road. If something is fubar'ed...you'll find out.

I got a three jaw puller from Sears, it has pulled several pulleys off so far, can't remember the part number though.

I'm pretty sure it was the 6" 3 jaw puller. Just hooks on to the inner tabs. You have to put something for the threaded rod part to push against is all. I used a big socket

Just get the "cheysler" balancer removal tool from autozone to rent. It's the best puller for these trucks period.
