Yes the rea case must be removed to press the pulley on.I have done 1 or 2 without splitting then though.The first one I ever did years ago i messed up the rear bearing pressing one on without splitting the case.Just mark them split the case and press it on.Rocky

Yes make 2 magic marker marks on each outer case half for easy (re)alignment when done. When the wife ain't looking put it in the freezer overnight & slightly heat the pulley then support the rear of the shaft & carefully press it on.

Hello,
I found the correct alternator for my AAR but is missing the pulley. I read somewhere that I need to remove the rear case to be able to press the pulley on? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, I use to go thru the BS of disassembling the cases to change pullies, but found it far easier to go to my local AutoZone or NAPA, they'd have it changed out in lest than five minutes without pulling it apart, no charge (although good to grease the guys palm) and at times not even purchasing the alternator there....

I didn't think the shaft is threaded like a crankshaft but if so, the same type of threaded tool could draw the pulley on

Some folks here have claimed that heating the pulley in the oven will allow it to drop right on the shaft......never worked for me.
