Default Suggestions for Removing Alternator Pulley?

In the middle of doing the swap and I need to remove the alternator pulley. There is no belt attached to keep the pulley still. I can keep the pulley still with a vice-grip and turn the large nut counter-clockwise and it doesn't seem like it's loosening at all. Is it counter-threaded?

go to autozone and either rent or buy the power steering pulley puller tool you can use that to get the job done.

ditto, you can just hold the pulley by hand and an impact wrench will spin that nut right off

it's regular threaded btw.
