your going to need a puller for it, but remove everything that touched the crankshaft and even then when i rebuilt mine i still had to take a rubber mallot and hit the crank to kind of "pop" it out, but if yours is seized than thats probly what your going to have to do, give it extra encouragement to come out lol , also take the flywheel and torque converter off it will help, you might have left one of the caps on
