Default 58mm Upper pulley installed on V6 XF-S

After waiting over a month for the US postal service to deliver my pulley I finally installed it.

First things first..... NO MORE CUTTING OR GRINDING UPPER PULLEYS OFF!

Also the was no grinding needed on the snout to fit.

I had an hour of time put into the removal and install from start to finish.

There is a little more low end torque which I was hoping for but Im going to need to ditch the Racechip and get VAP to tune for the pulley.

I made a quick youtube video showing the removal. Excuse my elbows,they're a little ashy. LOL

They are a nicely made tool however, there is just not enough room to weild one on the F-Type.
I tried the forge puller but had to send it back as there is little to no room left to play like there is on the XF unfortunately.

Ended up with :

and a low profile bolt puller that screws directly into the faces.

This solution was just about low enough profile to have room to get a ratchet/socket combo on.

Nice puller tool!
I have not seen that style before and it seemed to work great for you.
How much was it?

I first purchased that puller but didnt have confidence in the puller.
