keiser31 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 The best way to go is to get the correct size hub puller similar to this one..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keiser31 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 There's always the old "loosen the nut and drive around in a circle until it pops" method, but I don't like to chance it. You might find the correct hub puller on ebay, but you might also scroll down to the "Dodge & Dodge Brothers" forum to search for the post that talks about this.

Tim Wolfe Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I just had one made at a local machine shop, cost was around $100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impacsys Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 this is what we rigged up to pull the rear wheels. basicly had a large thick threaded washer machined then used a gear puller to pull the wheel off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
