Best way to remove these?? Seems like they’re stuck!

You can rent a puller from your local auto parts store. Usually it's put money down, then get it all back on return.

An impact wrench is the best way to get the nuts off the shafts, usually the pulleys will slide off after that.

You're right Bill. Thinking back now I can't recall if I used the puller/installer for these or if was just the power steering pulley.

last time I did mine, I took the alternators to a local autozone and they let me change them in the store so that I didn't have to actually rent the tool (impact gun).  I ended up buying an impact from Harbor Freight if I have to do it again.

You named it! Went to my local auto shop and they switched it for me free of charge! Love my community!
