Good evening.
The bolt is very tight. If you have an air gun, that will release the bolt. Otherwise, you need the tool I attached in the photo.
Once you remove the bolt, the balancer should just slide off. When you reattach it, the torque spec is listed in the other picture I attached.

Did you remove the center bolt from the pulley?
If you did, it should just slide off. Uou may need a hammer to hit the back of the pulley to help it off.

Maybe I did not explain it right. It is the whole assembly I need to take off. Here is a picture.

Cannot see down to the balancer. Can you take a better picture?

The balancer has been removed. Need to know how to take off all that you can see in picture - everything underneath where the thermostat goes. The metal piece that holds all the pulleys on.
