Scott,

I bought one of the hub pullers being sold by TSSC and found it to be of 
mixed value.  The base unit itself is extremely stout, unfortunately the used 
a soft screw and after the first few times hammer on it, it becomes 
mushroomed and is useless.  However, all is not lost!  I did find that Snap-
on sells a threaded rod that just happens to be the right size to fit.  I 
borrowed one of these from a shop I know and usd the base part of my 
puller to pull my spit axles apart.  I have yet to contact a Snap-on dealer to 
try and purchase the part myself.  Someday I plan on doing that!  If you 
haven't pulled your hubs by that time let me know.....I will try and locate 
one this weekend while I'm down in Dallas....

Brad
