WEEEEEllllll the puller stripped. i tried tightining it hitting ect but it just stripped the inside thredded bar! im thinking of heating the berring area just to try to loosen it, or maby pull apart the cv joint(really dont wanna do that cus never did 1 b/f). so does anybody have any oppionions? t/y Dave
wd-40 is not penitrating oil . use a chissel to strike the mounting seam...with the penitrating oil wet on the area ..

with enough hitting not to hard the shocking of the hammer blows should get the oil in there ...to loosen..

frozen to spindle is the norm / don't want to strees out those cv joints.
