Main Pulley removal question

If I remove PS/AC, Can I also Remove the pulleys associated with those from the front of the Main pulley?
I noticed the inner most and outermost pulley have timing marks.
I searched through AC/PS removal threads but couldnt find an answer to this question.

Thanks in advance,

Chase

yes you can.
the main pulley will and should stay on the hub when you pop the PS and Ac pulleys off.
The only "real big thing" that you should be aware of is that the pulley only goes ON one way,as the bolt pattern is not a "True 4 bolt square pattern".(in case you knock the main one off too).it is like 3 are True and one is offset a touch.
It was manufactured that way so you do not screw up the timing marks when installing the main pulley.That pulley has the marks on it.
