Anyone have an idea on how to remove the power steering pulley without that stupid adjustable wrench for Mazda?

I just made one out of two pieces of 1" steel strips that bolt together kinda like a "y" with a machine screw at the end of each leg. Took about 20 Mins.

I used an electric impact. Borrow one or go buy one from HDepot and return it after use (they make enough money from me).

Yes, Impact. Half a second and the pulley is off.

A rubber strap wrench worked great for me. Way cheaper than an impact for people who need to buy a new tool.
