I don't know why the images keep disappearing, but here is the
gist of it.  The missing images show a piece of 2"? square tubing
with a notch cut out of one side, welded (or clamped) to a 2nd 
piece of 2" tubing.  The notched end fits into the pulley and over
the nut, and the socket fits into the tubing onto the nut.

Another option is to use an impact wrench on the nut. A good
heavy duty impact wrench will spin off the nut without turning
the engine (or so I'm told).

Good luck.
