Pulling the harmonic balancer/lower pulley

Pulling the harmonic balancer/lower pulley
1997 Eclipse, non-turbo 2.4 liter. In order to pull my lower pulley/harmonic balancer (the pulley that both the alternator belt and a/c belt go to).. What type of puller do I need? Does it come right off after I undo the 4 bolts that hold it on? Or do I need a puller? If I need a puller, do I need one of those jaw pullers that grip around it? Or can I use a normal whell puller that uses bolts?
Am I correct in the way that I need to take this off?

RE: Pulling the harmonic balancer/lower pulley
Yep, I figured it out.... Just undo the 4 bolts and it comes off. One weird thing is that there wasn’t any room to get it off, so I had to loosen up the motor mount bolts some so that the engine would drop down a little bit.. then I was able to remove the it. Car is fixed now. A new harmonic balancer at NAPA was $80. (dealer wanted $150)
