Put chain pliers around the pulley. Put rags between chain and pulley, then use breaker bar, and put some nuts behind it. The starter method works to. Did it on accident.

With the head off, you can create a piston stop to hold the crank. Piece of steel with bolt holes, two head bolts and sockets to take up the slack and a short piece of wood to stop the piston. Pull towards the passenger side. I used my jack handle and some penetrating oil. It did not give up easy.

You can make a pulley holding tool out of angle iron that will bolt on with a couple of the bolts that hold the PS pulley on. Bolt the holder on, and rest the end of the holder on the floor. After that, you just need more leverage than you are using now on your breaker bar. The long handle from a floor jack works really well for that. You can always add more leverage... just make sure you are using high quality sockets.

dude, i dunno if this is good but this is what i did:
i had the engine on a stand, i put a rag on the tip of a screwdriver, stuck it in the drilled hole for the balancing on the crankshaft, and took the bolt right off. i,ve also heard of people jaming a block of wood in there.
note: the oil pan, baffle and oil pick up must be off to get to the crankshaft.

Well, I ordered a 3/4" drive 19mm socket cause I'm gonna try my big breaker bar, but NAPA just called me and told me a guy came in with the same problem I'm having on a toyota and said he discovered that it's righty = loosy... Ugh

Uhhh.. no... it's regular thread (on all the Toyota engines I've worked on and heard of anyways 22R, 22RE, 3VZE, 5VZFE). It's just on there really tight. You never did say... which engine are you working on? You really should put that info (as well as 2WD or 4x4, auto or manual, etc...) in your signature so that people will know.

Oh I believe you man, it's just the conflicting reports mess with me. I called the local toyota place and spoke with the shop supervisor or whatever and he told me reg. threads so I def. know it is..
anyway..
22re, manual, 2wd

Did you try the starter trick yet?
The service manual says to use a pulley holder. Toyota shops have a special adapter that bolts in thru the p/s pulley bolt holes, then you attach a holder bar to the adapter hub.
You could do the same thing with some long bolts and some spacers (nuts) and a 2' or 3' piece of angle iron with a couple holes drilled in it.

I managed to get that sumbitch bolt out, after buying a chain wrench from Rochesters Imports for $6, LOL.
Engine is out now, transmission comes off tomorrow. Timing cover is off now, too.
The whole thing.. I haven't rolled it back into the shop since I rolled the truck out, so the plastic is there to keep any trash or water or whatever to get inside.
I appreciate the chain wrench idea, never would've thought about that. No where had it for rent so I had to buy a cheapo. Made in China, surprise! Disgusting.
I wasn't comfortable doing the starter trick, personally.

Glad its all fixed...
I have the stupid SSTs that are in the FSM.
Never had an issue.... mainly because the SST bolts a "bar" to the crank pulley allowing the torque to be transmitted to the bolt...
BTW - the Moses Ludel book on Toyota shows a home built version of the same tool...
