Hi Lani,

     A regular drum puller should work.  You need to assure that the shoes are
fully retracted.  I have an excellent puller that I'd be happy to loan you.  
Only
problem is that we're down here in Plymouth MA and, as I recall, you're 
somewhere
up in NH.  My bread and butter takes me to Wayland MA daily and I could bring 
the
puller with me.
