Default Bearing puller

Couldnt find a UK seller for a prop puller, so got a bearing puller on Ebay for £9.00 posted!
Hopefully it will work, and i can get the prop mended this weekend at Steel Developments.

Default Prop removal

Can i get the bas*@$d prop off???

Can i f**k!!!

Anyone have any recommendations on removing a prop?

Seems solid......probably never been off.

If there is a specific prop puller tool, can anyone recommend it?

I dont want to spend a fortune just to get it off though!

Providing your puller fits on properly and puts on the necessary pressure then your gonna have to stick with it, spray on loads of penetrating fluid, heat it with a blowlamp, tighten the puller some more, leave it to sit for an hour, more heat , more fluid, more time, more heat etc etc, it will give eventually.
