Question on changing alternator pulley.

I recently bought a chrome alternator and have to change the pulley for a serpentine belt. Problem is I can't remember if the nut holding the pulley on is standard or reserve thread. Tried both but damn thing won't budge.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Put an old belt around the pulley and clamp it up tight in a vice to hold the pulley still and get a socket with a big breaker bar on it and give it a tap with a hammer.
