Lowering passenger side of engine

Need to lower passenger side of my car's engine just about two or three inches lower so I can remove crankshaft pulley. Not enough room to wiggle it out. Another option is to remove the crankshaft center bolt, but I cannot find a pulley holding tool at Autozone, Kragen or Sears. Do I have to remove all the mounts just to lower the passenger side three inches? Or any suggestion I can do much easier than lowering the passenger side engine. I am replacing the water pump, I have to remove the timing cover to do it, but the timing cover wont pull off without removing the crankshaft pulley.
