Hub frozen on axle

[jpenn82]

I have tried a wood block with a hammer and this thing is on there. Any other things I could try? Maybe a pulley puller?

Lots of penetrating oil and heat, preferably propane or MAPP gas.

Is that aluminum on steel?

steel

Pulley puller would help, along with continuing the hammer and block of wood method. Cursing helps too, and after a while it comes along naturally anyway.

Remember, you want to try to heat just the hub alone so that it expands from around the cold or colder shaft.

It's hard work for sure. BTDT.

ended up figuring out a way to get it in the press.
