alternator pulley replaced

the other day when i was cleaning my engine, i noticed that the alternator belt was bad, but i had them just replaced. when i looked to see what was causing it, i found out that my alternator pulley was dented in and causing the pulley to tear up the belt. i don't want to replace the whole alternator, has anyone just replaced the pulley. is it hard to do, do i need a impact gun to remove it. any advice in how to remove the pulley would help. sorry the thread is so long for a simple problem.

Get a UR pulley.

AaroNX, i'm talking about removing the pulley. i know UR makes one for it. I'm asking how i would take out the pulley. i know there is a nut holding it on. Can i just unscrew it with a socket or do i need to hold the pulley still and use a impact gun to take it out.

i think from the info off naji's website he said the best method was to use an impact wrench
