Sure can! But the fan and fan shroud along with the front differential will make it an exercise in patience! But it is doable...I have done it!
If you change it...install a Fluidampr in place of the stock damper and enjoy and smoother engine!

The rubber is the pulley. It bolts onto the crankshaft so called harmonic balancer with 3 bolts. Easy job to do and about $120 plus a case of brew!
******Correct me if I am wrong, but are the the 6.5 engines not ring gear balanced.****** and the fluid dampener only help out more....
