Default RE: pulleys

is it bolted on? i dont have the 4.6L, so i cant really help. if it is bolted on, find the type of bolt (torx, hex...) then break it free. i know my crank pulley had to be removed with a puller when i changed it out...

Is this part known to be a big squeaker..?

i have a squeak from under the hood, sounds like one of the pulleys,,
i believe its one of them on the left side, and kinda higher positioned,, and since i have nearly no idea what each pully is for or does, i'll just leave it at that...
thanks....4.6 by the way
