I have a standard 37" x 22" granite top with sink on top of a typical bathroom vanity. The sink is cracked and a corner on the top is knocked off. I've found many tops with sink available that will fit perfectly, but I do not know how to get the old top off. I have of course tried to pull up but it's stuck on there so that didn't work. There are no screws or bolts holding it either. Since i want to preserve the vanity I can't just pry it off with some sort of crowbar. Anyone got good ideas in this regard or do I have to replace the vanity also?

Use a long sharp knife, like a carpet/flooring knife, to slice through the caulking or construction adhesive that was used on the top of the vanity when the sink was set onto it. Then yes, use a lifting/prying strategy that minimizes potential for damage to the cabinet. You may need to slice, lift a little, slice some more, lift a little more, slice...
