Re: Removing Hub from Axle on my '51- Assistance Please!

Larry51,
Most of the pullers that I have seen are 3 bolt setups.
I have also hear mechanics say that leaving the pressure on overnight helps it break loose (as long as you protect it from hitting something if it slides off -- or worse, flys off!)
I am sure there are more stories among the members here, (including heat recommendations). None I have heard so far tell of this as an easy process. The mechanic in the picture was probably not working on a 59 year old axle.
Happy Packarding,
DanL
