You need a special tool to hold the pully in place, then you need to break the bolt free. They usually take around 250+ ftlbs of pressure to break free. Not easy by any means.

Well, my dad and I made a tool out of a chunk of iron and a galvanized pipe fitting. You might be able to do the same depending on if you have access to a welder. The other option is to hit it with an air gun. A good air gun will do 600ftlbs of force in reverse and should pop it right out. Hope this helps.
