First time for me. (Sounds like something off Craigslist, sort of.) But, I do not have any idea how much torque was on the puller but it was a bunch. I really think the PB Blaster works as the threads were damp when the arm came off.
I figured this experience was enough to justify posting...
OK! Got it off!
I went to O'Reilly Auto Parts, again, and purchased their Pitman Arm Puller. Nice, heavy and does not fit. I took a hand grinder and abrasive to it to widen the gap just about 1/8 if an inch. Perfect fit. Much beefier unit than the five ton two clamp I first attempted to...
I am grinding the O'Reilly puller to fit around the shaft. It has a larger diameter screw and I will use an extension on the ratchet for more torque. We shall see.
OK, I have a puller on and it is as tight as my impact wrench will take it. Not budging.
Should I get a big hammer and bang away or head to Harbor Freight for some big time impact wrench?
