99 Sonata V6 Timing belt questions
Do I need a puller to remove any of the pully's (including the crankshaft
pully)?
In my manual, it states that I have to remove the coolant pump pully, and
drive belt. By what I can see, the coolant pump is driven by the back
side of the Timing Belt, and NOT the drive belt.... So does it still have
to be removed?
I do have all the parts I need: New Water Pump (w/ gasket), Timing Belt,
Timing Belt Tensioner... Any thing else I need?

No, you won't need to pull the water pump pulley. In fact, you can't (at
least not without being very likely to break something). It's integral
with the water pump. I suspect you may be looking at instructions for the
4 cylinder.
Looks like you've got all the parts you need, unless you also wish to
replace the drive belt.

Re: 99 Sonata V6 Timing belt questions
Sorry, I thought I checked to see if I'd answered all your questions. I
guess not.
No, you don't need a puller. It should come right off. In some cases,
however, it seizes to the crank sprocket. In Wisconsin, I'd suspect that
corrosion on the pulley may make this happen. In these instances, you can
often pry the pulley and sprocket out together and the timing belt will
slip off. If you need to do this, try to have the engine set to TDC
beforehand. If you think you'll have a lot of trouble, you may want to
get a replacement sprocket beforehand. Trying to separate it from the
pulley with a significant amount of force usually damages the sprocket.
