Belts and Pulley question

..... my 88 9kt needed an alternator so i got a preowned one but gave up installing when i could not get the bolt behing the power steering (??) pulley off. My indy finished the job but a few days later there was a screech and bang follwed by dash lights light - he left a bolt out of the tensioner puller mounting bracket and the belt slid over to the crank housing and shredded itself.
... i replaced it but noticed a similar noise and sure enough -- the belt started to shred again.
.. i got a new belt and pulley from a site sponsor. I noticed the new pulley has the bearing - but i had no clue how to get the pressed in bracket out of the old pulley so i put it back on saturday nite and planned to call about that pulley bracket today.
... as cruising down the road this AM ... heard more screeching and knocking -- turned around to find the far side of the belt in the road - but the rest riding nicely in the grooves...
.. what happened..? belt too tight? the old pulley bearing so shot it angles the belt to the crank housing? I notcved when i tightened the old pulley it seemed to seize the pulley so i backedit off the a fww turns.
... where do i get that pressed in bracket or is there a way to get the old one out. this car does not have the auto tensioner.
thanks again guys
