Put it in gear, have somebody stand on the brake and use a big breaker bar.

I tryed putting it in gear, and having someone on the brakes, it didnt work. I ended up borrowing a buddys impact gun and it worked out fine.

your car does have to be a stick shift with a good clutch for that to work.

You should go buy a harmonic damper pulley removal tool. Makes your life SOOOO much easier.
