So, Trying to get the bugger off, its had a puller on it for 2 nights plus lube and being smacked by tpth's but its not budging. Any other methods to try so as not to melt the seals?
Or do I melt the seals and get a new seal kit?

Heat and a new seal kit

With the puller still on..2xBFH and smack it each side of the shaft simultaneously, if that dont work I would grind the fecker off before I used heat..
I did mine like youre doing and it eventually let go in the middle of the night and set all the dogs off.. :003:

I gound the old one off, and finished it with cold chisel so as not to damage splines

Sykes pickavant 10 ton hydralick puller leave the nut on a few threads wind up hard and strike with a big punch on the the splined part of the drop arm

I've drilled a line of holes in one in the past then used a chisel to split it. Now I use a ball joint splitter that we have at work for aircraft tugs and the like.

Pitman arm!!!! Didn't you know? These are an urban science and in reality are the sons-of-a-bietch that normally bite the uninitiated in the ass?? They have the temperament of a virgin and have the look and no touch mentality icon_rolleyes: :icon_rolleyes:ch
