I have tried every puller we have, they are all too large to fit. Is heat (and destroying the bearing) the only way to go?. A grinder will not get at it.
Welcome to the site, hobby, friendships, and events to come. Which you will most certainly enjoy with your newly acquired and very smart looking truck. Inside and out.
I have them all. This has turned out to be a real pain. (near disaster) as The first show of the season is only 3 weeks away and I have the truck and fork lift blocking the shop.. Hopefully (I Have asked) the moderators to re-name and bump the post to the top.

M54A2 M62 Transfer case repair HELP.
I need the advice of someone who has stripped and repaired/overhauled the M54/M62 transfer box.
The T.M. is the usual joke on how to!. I find it absolutely ridiculous that when going through the strip down procedure the instructions keep relating to...
Yes, The starter fell down and shorted out on the brake line. The brake lines end in solid metal no matter they are supported elsewhere through rubber. That is why they 'burnt the length that they did. You must get a support for the rear of the starter motor. Or fabricate one. Remove the brake...

Some of the most 'doubted' projects in the past have worked just fine. And quite a more than practical idea with a (that's the problem) big enough circle. (Now, Let's go really 'wild' and visualize THREE! 'decks'!.
I spent hours looking at all the amazing pictures and details everyone posted. So a HUGE thank to everyone. One of those wreckers appeared at an event two years ago, needed restoration, but it did run, and drove ok it seemed.
YOU can swim just fine (without the gate). just the goat will sink!, and we have found some drive shafts and will be checking their condition at the weekend. Checking on a gate for you also.

There ya' go!..take recovery 4x4s offer..Join the league of "happy" (crazy(retarded, Sorry retired!?)) ex military enthusiasts who travel all over simply enjoying their vehicles, the friendships, and all the interesting and varied events they participate in the 'green' (and or sand coloured)...
That's a very nice looking truck, if it is the one in your avatar. (And so) I would still do a very thorough inspection of ALL the wiring on your truck to prevent any failure or short circuit somewhere else in the system.
Welcome to the site and hobby, You need to read the applicable T.M.s And buy a nice big tub of grease! for your lube gun, I like to use a Graphite grease on ( All of ) mine. Post up some pictures of your acquisition when you can.
